[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The bottom line is that no single extracurricular activity and/or award is the determining factor in holistic admissions. This includes national honor Society. However, if invited to join and qualified, there is no downside to doing so.[/quote] My junior son who had a very intense course load and a significant outside commitments this year saw immediately the huge downside, which was that he did not want to commit the required time. It seemed like a meaningless box checking exercise to him so he skipped it. Really, why would a college give much weight to something which objectively is not much of an accomplishment? The barrier to entry is just not that high. Do it if you enjoy the service projects.[/quote]
