[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son's main extracurricular was outside of school. It was a passion and unique and without a doubt mattered to admissions (we know this because reference was made to it in the acceptance letter). [b]Anything that shows your child used their time in a productive and focused way counts[/b].[/quote] Anything that SHOWS. Show being the key word. A lot of times just taking something g as a hobby doesn’t show anything. You can’t prove it. What if a kids hobby is running, but there not part of a team, and haven’t participated in any races? How are they supposed to prove their involvement with it? [/quote] A student does not need to prove an activity. Needs to find language to describe it in a meaningful way on the app. The key is in the language used, which might show not only what the kid did, but how the kid thinks.[/quote]
