[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Earn the Eagle Rank in Scouts BSA or the Gold Award in Girl Scouts. They both show a level of dedication and commitment that is multi year and community involved. [/quote] [b]There are many thousands of students with these awards.[/quote][/b] Eagle Scout demonstrates grit and an ability to follow through with a long term project (character traits a lot of college students don't have). It's also not associated with Asian Americans so well worth considering. Google it. It got my kid into top schools.[/quote] This is actually very true. There are thousands of kids nationwide who become Eagle Scouts every year but very few of them also carry an elite academic profile in terms of both performance and advancement. It would definitely be a separator because it is an indicator of diligence, responsibility, and long-term goal-setting and achievement.[/quote]
