Ep. 331 | 5 Biggest Nothing-Burger Activities

from PrepWell Podcast with Phil Black Hosted by Phil Black

In this week's podcast, I review the 5 biggest nothing-burger extracurricular activities that you should not include in your college application - unless you have no choice. You might be surprised by the list. Even though some of the activities/organizations sound legitimate, more often than not, they are a waste of time, energy, and money.
