[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]15:15 again OOS flagships. Never considered sports as significant for college admission - not why it's done. Would not have wanted kids to choose their college based on sports or devote time to a sport in college.[/quote] Op said activities, not necessarily sports. Not all kids are athletes. At the end of the day, the kid is the one who has to be motivated. An athletic kid who starts in middle school could do better than the unathletic kid whose parents shuffled him to practice all through elementary. In normal UMC neighborhoods, kids play sports. It seems all kids at least try. It is good to be with other kids, get exercise and be active.[/quote]
