Try to get some community involvement as well. Every other kid has some martial arts thing going on. You want to stand out as a candidate. Start a club, join student council, volunteer for big name events or NPO's. To give you an idea... my friend's brother
(gr 11) volunteered throughout the summer with the Vancouver Board of Trade and attended a few conferences they hosted.
Would having started a still small (but growing) non-profit type thing help? Basically I have a page on fb where Im trying to support international freedom and im gonna expand that into a club in school. Would that be helpful?
