Hey I am in a LOT of (ie. 15 or so) activities. Should I leave some off of my app.? Personally I'm not going to quit them b/c some college doesn't want you to be in a lot of stuff (I am active in them, I didn't just sign up and attend once a year) but I was wondering if I should leave a few off of my app. so I don't seem like I'm just listing every single thing to be impressive? And for apps. where they provide you w/lines to write your activities, should I refrain from attaching a paper w/other activities? A few of the clubs don't really have that many meetings but I almost always attend all the mtgs, participate, a few leaderships, etc.

Just make sure you put the ones that mean the most to you.

from what i hear on much of the board...many collges are more pleased to see someone really committed to a few activities, rather than spread thin over a million! LoL

hope this helps!
