[quote=Anonymous]College admission is crazy. Have your kid do what they love. Don't have them join things just to put it on a resume. This is bad for them and bad for the group they join. I know kids who had incredible grades, incredible ECs, and being from NOVA just counted against them. One kid asked me what else they could have done and felt completely defeated. Not totally in jest I told them the schools wanted them, but from rural Iowa. The kid ended up at a great school, just not what the school they initially wanted. Again, have your kid do what THEY love. Not what you or they think will look good on a resume.[/quote]
