Hm, sucks. I was originally intending on being a recruited athlete, and I definitely had potential to do so. I then decided that I had a better chance if I focused on academics and other ECs. In order to be a recruit, I would definitely sacrifice almost everything else I did, my grades and future scores would be lower, and my ECs list would be empty. I hope my decision to change focus will help me in the long run.
Then again, maybe I’ll win the lottery and have a library with my last name on it in a few years. /(._.)/
