In school Extracurriculars???
Answered

I'm a junior in high school, and I'm hoping to get involved in some extracurricular activities to give my college application a better look. I've considered joining a sports team, but it's tough for me to stay after school due to some responsibilities at home. I'm planning to join an honors society and a club that catches my interest, but I'm wondering if you have any other suggestions for in-school activities that might help me stand out to future colleges and universities. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, Thank you! :)

If I were you I would join DECA if your school offers it. I’m the president of my chapter and it’s a pretty low-maintenance club. The only thing you are required to do is work in a school store and it looks great on a college application. It is a club that is more geared to future business majors if that interests you
