[quote=Anonymous]People shouldn't lie, obviously. But I don't think this is helping them. Our kids' high school does a college 101 session every year. It brings in a college admission counselor and the message is always the same re: ECs. Minus some exceptions - recruited athlete, etc., whether the kid does one or ten extra circulars, ECs count as one factor in admissions, and nowhere near as important as rigor, grades, SATs/ACT, essays, etc[/quote]
