<p>Ok so on the secondary school report my guidance put my extra curricular as “good” while i did many things compared to other students. My class only has 96 students. </p>

<p>Ex.

Tennis Captain
Restaurant Job
Volunteered at non profit skin research foundation
School Representative during Open Houses every year
countless ours of service for teacher
club treasurer then vice president</p>

<p>seriously i know she prolly made a mistake. what should i do?</p>

<p>My suggestion: Let it be, list your ECs with hours in the “Activities” section, and let the adcoms decide for themselves. I suppose you could politely ask your GC whether she was aware of all your EC activities and still considered them “only good,” but really, you’re going to give all the details in your application anyway and your recommendation letters should give another perspective on your commitment outside of school. It’s not like she’s destroyed your chances for admission.</p>
