Extra curriculars

[flat ocean]

What are like outstanding extracurriculars that i can do preferably accesible online or in a format where theres national competittions , do i need to have a specific sport/music instrument i need to be intrested in ? How do you get worthy honour awards? How many leadership roles and others do i need to start working on to get into a top 50 school?

depends on what system you want to go through.

If you to go through the UK system, you don't have to do sports, music or leadership stuff at all ( unless ofc ur degree is gonna be about it )

But the US likes you to have like a LOT of extra curriculars which sometimes doesn't relate to your degree

Most schools emails it to students every now but if your school doesn't then I have see subreddits about it.

Huh?

[candid bough]

thats interesting, so for UK unis what do they usually look for?

[cunning aurora]

You just need a few supercurriculars and you are fine

most consultants and even the universities themselves say that

[cunning aurora]

So you need like a few things that relates to the subject you are studying, you don't need unrelated extracurriculars like American universities

where you play golf, tennis and polo, then play the violin and found a non-profit to get into engineering

It could be books about the subject you find interesting
