Does it Really Matter to Hold Leadership Positions in Clubs/Student Government?

<p>That’s exactly what my high school was like when I was applying, popularity contest for people to get those positions, but don’t let it bother you/stop you from reaching your goals - Schools would (in my opinion) much rather see great community involvement than just a leadership position you can slap on, so I would get involved in something service related that goes along with what you like… I love kids, and I volunteered doing simple office stuff at a local Children’s Home and got to learn about the adoption system, my ultimate goal was to work in the Music Industry where I was applying though so I helped put on fundraisers with them that involved music - see what I mean? Take the time to come up with interesting opportunities that combine things you like and that will stand out much more!</p>
