[quote=Anonymous]I am a new poster and agree that in-school EC are not necessary. You dont need to fight the battle of joining competitive school clubs or varsity sports. They are really not that special. There are so many ways a kid can develop and explore interests independently. Be creative and think outside the box. Colleges like kids who are smart, curious, engaged and bonus points for showing leadership and impact. Impact can be defined in many ways. And leadership is not about titles, it's more about what you've done. None of our kids won national awards and they weren't big school student leaders. However, they were high academic achievers and pursued 1-2 interests deeply, and on their own. [/quote]
