Extracurricular activities play a critical role in MBA application. Here are some reasons: Extracurricular activities add color and texture to an otherwise one-dimensional application. Extracurricular activities prove your commitment Extracurricular demonstrate creativity and passion Extracurricular activities allow you to demonstrate initiative, as well as leadership and organizational skills Extracurricular activities can tip the scale in your favor when you’re up against an otherwise equally competitive candidate Extracurricular or Volunteer Activities which are relevant for MBA Application Any activity that shows your entrepreneurial skills Any activity that shows your leadership, communication, and emotional intelligence Any activity or event that proves your ability to come out of your comfort zone Ex: International travel, learning a foreign language & crossing cultural and communication barrier Any activity where you are involved with the military or affiliated organizations Any activity that involve organizing events - at work, college level, or alumni association Any hobby that involve practice on a regular basis - football, baseball, cricket, basketball, soccer, archery, golf and other sports that require discipline and focus.
