[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A normal summer job. And I'm not kidding.[/quote] Found this to be true, also. With all the passion projects and extracurriculars, many kids don't have time for a part-time summer job, so it stands out.[/quote] How did you find it to be true? Meaning: how did you learn that an EC of a summer job helps make a kid stand out in college admissions?[/quote] DP. My guess is that AOs think of this from a common sense perspective. A job shows the person is responsible and hardworking. A job is a very respectable EC. People who look down their noses at a teenage job are exactly not what AOs are looking for.[/quote] So it’s not that the person found this to be true… But that the person guesses this is true.[/quote]
