You never wrote what schools you were being recruited by. If you're good enough to make the football team at Colgate, you're a shoe-in to be accepted. Without football, you have a pretty decent shot.

ECs not much

The highest post I have got is that of a Joint Secretary. lol. well actually i was a house captain in Class 8 , but i dont think that counts.

I have done some volunteering in Kanti Children's Hospital as a Social Actions Volunteer and Donated blood a few times and also worked in Old Age homes. I was also a executive member of Red Cross in school and we did a few things.

I dont know how much my EC is going to help me.....
