<p>Students should do the activities that they most enjoy, and then go to the colleges that best meet their needs, and also want them. If a college would accept a student only if that student gave up a passion in order to look good to the college, that’s not a good fit for the student.</p>
<p>Incidentally, the very top colleges want students who follow their passions, even if those passions are all in one area. Of course, the very top colleges don’t have room for all of the qualified applicants who apply, so pursuing one’s passion (or dropping a passion for another EC) will not guarantee admission. Pursuing one’s passion, though, will more likely bring happiness and fulfillment than would doing something one doesn’t enjoy.</p>
