[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How many ECs do kids have to list? My daughter barely has time to do much outside of her rowing, where she's devoting 3+ hours a day year-around. Is she really expected to hold down jobs or be a president of a club that has impact? This is a little scary. [/quote] I know someone who does crew. Very few other ECs due to time commitment for rowing. [/quote] +1 I have a kid who spent 25-30 hours per week, all year long competing in niche sport while attending their local public school. They have no activities to put down aside from being an occasional club member. No leadership roles, no jobs. They let their passion consume everything and they are looking back with regret. [/quote] My kid does that for their sport (year round- practice 4 nights a week/gages weekends and lots of travel) —both my kids. They still had summer jobs and community service and one club they did since freshmen year. [/quote]
