varsity two


do colleges perfer two years of varsity track or two years of volunteer work?

I have done two years of varsity track but lately have been getting into doing alot of community service every weekend. Would it be alright if I stopped track but still did the community service? How would colleges look at this?

I’m a very sport-negative person, so expect other people to answer differently.

Unless you plan to spend a lot of time running away, I can’t imagine what academic or professional value there is in track. Volunteer work of any kind seems a lot more likely to show a responsible attitude, and almost sure to develop some useful skills or contacts.

Keep running if you have fun with it, just don’t expect me to believe it can do anything to make you a better chemist, engineer, poet, historian, or whatever.
