How To Make An Admission Form Of A Club: Fill & Download for Free

A2A.There are a number of things Harvard does not want to see in your application.An essay about how it is your lifelong dream to attend Yale. (Yes, it happens. People write a ‘standard’ essay and then forget to change the name of the school!)An essay with grammatical mistakes.An essay that is formulaic / cookie-cutter.An essay that is not personal, and doesn’t allow the reader to get a feel for you as a person, what motivates you, what your passions are, etc.A long list of meaningless extracurriculars; i.e. clubs you joined but didn’t really participate in but rather just joined and maybe attended a few meetings.Extracurriculars that are clearly done just for the purpose of making your college applications look better.Letters of recommendation from people who do not actually know you well; a LOR from your congressman or from a celebrity is meaningless unless that person knows you well in an academic or professional capacity, and those sorts of letters will hurt your application as they take the place of a letter from someone who can actually add meaningful information or lend a unique perspective to your application.A list of awards that includes awards from middle school (aka junior high school) or from (gasp) elementary school, unless those awards were in national or international competitions.Exaggerations or false claims about your experiences or awards or extracurriculars.Overuse of the thesaurus; it’s easy to tell when someone uses the thesaurus to try to make their essay sound more sophisticated by substituting words they aren’t familiar with for words that would work just fine!Nonsensical statements. My favorite? An essay that started with the sentence: “The impact of video games on violent behavior has been a controversial topic for many centuries.”

I applied to MIT in 1999 and was accepted early. I didn’t have exceptional grades (3.6 GPA) or an exceptional SAT score (1420). I had a few extracurricular like glee club and chess club (pretty nerdy) but nothing spectacular except that I had taught myself electronics using an old kit that belonged to my father who passed away when I was very young.In addition to all the regular applications stuff like transcripts, interview and essays, there was a page on the application which was left blank for the applicant to fill with whatever they wanted. You could write a poem, make a sketch, draw a diagram, paste a picture, etc.I went to RadioShack and bought a recording chip, a little red push button, small speaker, battery holder and PCB board. I sandwiched the board on the back of the paper and placed the push button, speaker, battery and chip on the front and soldered the whole thing together. I wrote “press the button” on the front of the paper with an arrow pointing to the red button.It looked something like this, imagine a paper sandwiched in between the green PCB and the brown back part. (This image, although similar, is not of the device I made, it was borrowed from from 10s LIGHT SENSOR RECORD device voice module music box sound chip automatic talk | eBay).When you pressed the button it played the recording that said: “Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to admit me to MIT. This message will NOT self destruct. Play it back as many times as necessary to admit me to MIT”Years later I stopped by the admissions office to inquire about it. They said they remembered the application, it had stopped playing but they still had the device saved in the archives.

Hey, Some background about me: I am a recent pass out of NITT, was a member of RMI and am now doing my masters. What you are asking is something every one in NITT would have asked themselves during their first or second year here.I assume you want to know how not joining a club will affect your future prospects, which is either post graduate study then a job, or directly to a job after college. Recruiters and people on admissions panel look for people who are willing to learn, have the capacity to absorb information, people who can work well in teams and people who can communicate professionally and efficiently. You must be able to quantify this.Willingness to learn and Capacity to learn are both based on the individual. As another answers pointed out, there are lots of online resources to learn and that none of the clubs will give you more knowledge. This is true(partly). Most learning at clubs is not done directly through peers alone. However it break barriers to clear doubts and learn from anothers experience). Lots of us refer/learn primarily from online sources.Learning to work in teams and learning to communicate can be done only in groups, And for this being part of a club helps alot. Not being in a club does not mean you'll never work in a team. It will only reduce the number of chances you will get to work/communicate with groups on specific topics. (Your discussions in your friends circle don't count, they are social discussions and not professional(no conclusion is reached)).Further, during an interview (during placements) and when writing your statement of purpose (for masters/PhD), you'll need to talk about your ability to work in a team. This is quantified better is you are part of a club(1+yrs in any club excluding NSS). About clubs just promoting dog work, it gives you an appreciation for the small stuff and gives you an idea on how what affects the outcome of a planned event.However, if I you are indeed a 2nd yr and were not able to get into any of the clubs, don't lose hope. Many of them have a second set of inductions. Try again, interact with the existing members.If you are uninterested in any of the clubs and feel that they do not represent you in any way, then don't join any club. Do what interests you (not what entertains you!) and you should be fine. Just make sure you can quantify what you have done/learnt.TLDR: Not joining a club will just lessen the interactions you have with other peers. You will get a job, etc. However you'll to put a slightly extra effort. Joining a club will help with team skills and through interaction knowledge. It'll give you smth to talk about confidently in an interview/SOP.
