[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC has no interest in activities, and never really has. Has [b]maybe 1-2 that are mostly just on paper. No real hobbies either. [/b] Course rigor and GPA are both very high, but test scores are middling (1100-1200). Better to encourage SAT prep or activities? Both? Neither? DC is very resistant to parental suggestions. Goal is a large merit scholarship at a good college (T10/Ivies not of much interest.)[/quote] What does he do with his time? I agree with PPs that a job is a good idea + family volunteering. Beyond that formal activities are not really needed. For the app activity list include the "on paper" things. Include informal hobbies. My DD listed drawing/painting as her most time consuming activity because she does that for at least an hour a day year-round. If he really does nothing, then he's likely spending too much time online/gaming so that needs to be limited.[/quote]
