(A)
While good grades and test scores are the basic requirements for getting into college, after-school activities are becoming more important in the college selection process in the US. As entrance into college has become more difficult, colleges have looked more at what skills you have. Taking part in after-school activities is a great way to succeed in school. High School Clubs
Most high schools offer a lot of clubs and activities, so it is easy to find something that you are interested in. Colleges look for students who will also be active other than test scores.
There are many clubs in school, such as the drama club and a book club. You may even be able to find a club related to a future job, such as Future Teachers of America. High School Sports
If you want to go to college and want to take part in sports at a college level, then this fact just might give you a chance. It is generally a good idea to focus on one single sport. If you plan on sports opening college doors and leading to college scholarships (奖学金), it would be better if you decide which sport to do. In this way, you will have enough time to build their skills. High School Publications (出版物)
Another smart way to be active in high school and show colleges that you are interested in activities more than academics (学术) is to be a part of their school’s newspaper or magazine. There may be an actual class you can join or you may join a club. Being in high school publications can be very helpful, particularly if you want to major in English or in education in college.
