[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Being mediocre in a instrument (playing one you hate) is not going to help. If you are good in a rare instrument (e.g., double reed) or great in a common instrument (Sax, Trumpet), it will help. But otherwise, it is no different than being a generic football player (i.e., below recruited). As an example, my DD plays three instruments. She is a good Alto Sax/Bari Sax player, and learning the Bassoon (pretty good given she has been playing it for only 1 year -- school needed someone to play the bassoon). As a sophomore, she has had a couple of colleges contact her as they need bassoonists for the orchestra.[/quote] Perhaps this was intended to be a humble brag, but you failed miserably.[/quote] Seriously. And what the hell kind of college would be actively recruiting a bassoonist with one year of experience. [/quote]
