I think that by being a part of a new school(I'm in the first graduating class) I could have hindered my chances of being accepted in colleges. There are none of the standard groups and activities. We do have a basketball, football, baseball, etc., however I'm not very sports-minded. There is NO student government, honors society, or any other clubs that you would normally use to boost you on college applications. My question is Do you think that colleges will recognize/consider that the school does not have these activities when they see my application?
