One of the suggestions listed is that I should try and add at list one Tier G extracurricular . What is an example of a Tier G extracurricular.
According to the College Vine Chancing Profile these are the only G activities:
Non-Art Competitions
I was part of a team that reached the state level competition in this activity in a competitive process
Drama
I performed a substantial role in a school play
Music
If my school has multiple groups, I am a member of the highest group in my school
Honor Societies
I was a member of an honor society and had significant involvement e.g. I spent 25 hrs designing and implementing NHS tutoring at my school
Employment
I had an unpaid internship at a local small business or government office
Research
I conducted independent research with a college level advisor that won't be published, or I had a research internship with private company
Hope that helps you.
Tier G activities are activities that are impressive, but not extremely impressively. So, if you were part of a dance team and your team went to a state level competition. Also, if you were a lead or an important role in a school play, that would be a tier G activity. If you held school leadership in a specific club, that would be another example. Winning the Scholastic Silver Key is also an example. Even being a member of your highest music group is a Tier G activity. Another example is being involved in NHS and implementing a project to change it, like designing a website for this club. Holding an unpaid internship at a business or organization would be an example. Lastly, doing research with some professor that won’t be published is a tier G activity.

Just to give an example for N-A C I am part of Debate team and we haven’t lost state for the last few years. It doesn’t mean I won but the team did and you participated in state. Also most nationally affiliated clubs like SciOly DECA HOSA et cetera have state level competition.
