<p>Instead of starting a club, how about spending the time on a project of some sort? For example, my friend from high school started a company when he was in tenth grade based on a product he created to allow POP3 and SMTP access to AOL mail (the product is called email2pop, if you want to read about it). If you were to do something like this (of course, with a different product), it might be a good way of developing both your skills in software engineering as well as business. It would also save you the trouble of needing to get internships with computer companies. </p>
<p>Your project doesn’t have to be business-related. You could instead model natural systems that interest you (e.g. the solar system) or pursue other activities where you can develop and demonstrate your intellectual prowess.</p>
<p>Edit: My friend’s majoring in EECS and management at MIT now.</p>
