<p>What clubs are you guys doing?
How about honor societies?</p>
<p>I enjoyed NACLO much more then I thought I would. As for honor societies NAHS has been my favorite, but from my understanding we have a very strong chapter…</p>
<p>Scholastic Bowl, but overall I’m not a club-joining person. I don’t have any clubs listed in my ECs on the Common App.</p>
<p>As far as honor societies, we only have NHS at my school, and I got rejected, so…</p>
<p>I really like the FFA, we do a lot of cool things ranging from community service to competitions. Our NHS is pretty cool too, I remember really disliked the idea of tutoring, but after a year with NHS, I tutor as much as possible to help students on state tests and classroom tests.</p>
<p>“Chem group” at my school. The founders built a really good relationship with the AP chem teacher at my school so “chem group” pretty much has access to everything in the lab.</p>
<p>We used to study for chem olympiad (or local competitions) but now we mix chemicals and try to discover which are exothermic/endothermic/pungent/etc. Tons of fun.</p>
<p>SPEECH! It definitely helped me rid myself of awkward middle school shyness and gave me a general boost of confidence. Plus, you make great friends that will last a long time. Also, if your teachers know you’re in speech, they will automatically have a little more respect for you!</p>
