[quote=Anonymous]I'd hate to think my daughter's admission to a good school would turn on whether or not she was in Key Club in HS. Thirty years ago, I was accepted to Syracuse Engineering with [b]zero[/b] ECs (no sports, no clubs; I worked an after school job). I was only in the top 15% of my class (40th in a class of 250) and took no SAT prep. I seriously doubt that would be the case these days. Grade inflation had made everyone chase meaningless ECs to help distinguish themselves and it's gotten ridiculous.[/quote]
