College Tutoring
im a junior right now. so far this is what i have to put on my applications: 2-3 years of volunteer work at the SPCA, 1 year as a member of spirit club at my school, 2 years of JV girls soccer, 1-2 years of elementary school tutoring, and in march im taking a national spanish exam (which i can only include if i do well on it). i have never had a job but i plan on getting one this summer.

definitely, you should have enough (depending on where you are going). check out colleges you are interested in website’s and sometimes they suggest how many one should have, but it sounds like you are just fine. be sure to keep it up because it also looks good for scholarship applications as well

I am also a junior, and that seems a good amount. Keep going and adding more things to make the resume more impressive. They look at extracurricular activities to see how involved you are at various things, and you seem to grasp that.

Remember, it’s about quality not quantity. You have quite a few activities that you seem to be involved in, so don’t add anymore unless you are really passionate about them.
