[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m Asian I say yes, it’s important; my husband says it doesn’t matter. He went to a mediocre public school, didn’t play an instrument, he did play football in high school. DH was a heavy partier in college but is now a high level executive. I tell him times are different and now everything counts; a commitment to an instrument [b]shows perseverance, diligence, and accomplishment[/b]. He says blah, not vital; a person can BS they played an instrument...[/quote] A commitment to any extracurricular can show perseverance, diligence and accomplishment. Those are the important factors, can be a sport, an instrument, some other extracurricular, or even a job. [/quote] +100 I don't think playing an instrument is a hook, but indeed it is a positive on list of extracurriculars...especially if one plays and takes lessons through high school.[/quote]
