    or, at your first club meeting you could just watch a Preaching P video 🤷🏽‍♂

    Brainwashing people, I used to follow you back then, not gonna do it anymore I'm done with these filthy colleges, It's better if I simply compete and get admitted to one based on my scores.

    Your videos are amazing, I'm a rising junior who is planning on starting a STEM club focused around getting peers to start independent or collaborative stem research projects. This video made me recognize and learn from a lot of my flaws and I learned so much. All of your videos are very unique and are always engaging and relatable. Most inspiring KZreadr out there.

    I inherited one of the lazy clubs and I’m trying to turn it around. 2 years ago someone started a lazy club for their college apps and just got all their friends in it as well. There were like a few others who joined (like me), but it was mostly her and her friends. I know a good amount of people so I got 12 sign-ups when I marketed it at the club-fair but only 4 people regularly show up. That would be fine but my school says if you don’t average 10 members you don’t get to exist next year. Also the person appointed one of her friends as VP(I was already VP) and I think she doesn’t care about the club that much either, but tbf she’s a senior and I send the club emails out like 3 AM that same day.

    Pratik. Your videos are always so helpful! How important is the number of members in your club for college applications. Like will they not even consider clubs that have too few members?

    i started a cooking club towards the end of my freshman yr but we officially started meetings sophomore yr. we have a consistent amount of members at our meetings, but it’s a bit difficult to manage the club at times as our school doesn’t have any home-ed classes or much options so we’re usually working with make-shift equipment inside of our advisor’s classroom. im not sure if i should keep it running junior yr or divert my attentions toward something else. its not that i don’t enjoy the club, i do. its just I often find myself overwhelmed with it and feel as if it has little to do with what i want to pursue as someone who hopes to go down the premed track. i have two other positions in two clubs that i nowhere feel the same sort of weight or stress over, but that could be because i am the president of the cooking club so it might feel more overwhelming over a smaller position in the other clubs. if anyone has any advice, id really appreciate it.

    Preach, dude! My fail-proof strategy that led to my acceptance as a 17 year old college student for an elite Ivy League higher learning institution: [disclaimer: I applied to colleges as a female mixed-race 16 year old MINOR. There is no such thing as Ivy League 'affirmative action' for minors to be admitted as college students simply because it's a liability for any higher learning institution to take on the burden of responsibility for any damages/injuries/abuses of minors incurred on campus. Thus, I was an exceptional 16/17 year old candidate for college admissions!] *1)* I attended Brighton High School in Rochester's town of Brighton, and I passed my annual standardized tests for New York State Regents [disclaimer: at the time of my high school attendance, Brighton High School was regarded as one of the best public schools in the nation] *2)* I took both the SAT and the ACT, and I submitted my ACT scores because they were slightly more impressive *3)* Starting at age 15, I was employed at a part-time union job at a grocery store, until I resigned to become a 17 year old college student *4)* At the age of 16, I completed a Summer internship in the field of study that I would aspire to complete a four-year college degree in *5)* I requested a reference letter from the most well-rounded teacher at Brighton High School *6)* I was interviewed for an Ivy League college by an Ivy League alumnus resident of the town of Brighton BEFORE the Ivy League Admissions Office interviewed me again on a college campus *7)* At the age of 16, I joined the Students Against Driving Drunk membership association at Brighton High School *8)* At the age of 16, I VOLUNTEERED as an after-school tutor for underprivileged children in Rochester. This meant that on various weeknights I chose to leave my privileged suburb in order to travel to the 'inner city', via a public transit bus, just to help disadvantaged kids! *I cannot stress enough how important creating extracurricular opportunities that HELP YOUR COMMUNITY impresses Ivy League Admissions Counselors!!!* Not only was I accepted into the Ivy League as a 17 year old college student, but I was also accepted into the 4 other safety schools that I applied to. I chose not to attend the Ivy League school because I was also accepted into the most expensive elite collegiate consortia in the entire world. Therefore, I don't always believe that attending the Ivy League is the best option for every applicant, but my Ivy League college acceptance letter is one of the proudest awards that I've received in my lifetime!

    Hey Preaching P, I need some help cause I got one year left after moving from Texas and into my new school. I have lots of passion into creating a computer science club and hosting competitions that we do with group members, but the problem I've been trying to ask my self is that I only got one year left which is my senior year due to the moving. I just feel that I don't have enough time to actually get the club up and running for long. :(
