[quote=Anonymous]OP-- this tends to happen sort of naturally. At the beginning of ninth grade, my kid wanted to sign up for and do everything. But by sophomore year, they kind of found their home. Dropped one of the sports, asked to do a summer program focused on a different activity. Once you see the passion emerge, you can nurture it. (I actually did kind of the opposite of what you are suggesting-- the interests skewed toward non academic and I insisted they do a specific academic club/team that I thought would serve them well in life. Universities might like spiky, but use your own judgment to make sure the kid will have good life and academic skills.[/quote]
