That only works in the US though. Colleges outside the US don't tend to care about extra-curriculars, etc.

Unless you’re really pushing for Ivy League, I don’t think colleges in the US care either. Who is calling your high school to verify that they even had an Open Source Club and that you were the treasurer of it?

Agreed: the data in this article only discusses the US, so I was only discussing the US here. I'm not sure if there's a similar crisis in other countries. Some in this thread have indicated yes, others no.
