Ivy League Help?

I need help in dealing with extra coculicular activities in order to prepare myself for getting admitted into an Ivy League School. My only problem is that I suck at sports ,which is a big factor for admissions. Could I be able to overcome this setback with other stuff - volunteering or extra languages(I'm learning my 4th)?

Sports aren't a huge factor. They don't tend to want jocks as much as smart people. Just keep up on the extra curriculars (spelling curricular correctly is a start). Keep a 4.0. Write a great admissions essay. Get lucky. Learning an instrument is also a good idea. Do things that show you have dedication and teamwork. That is all that sports do.
Reply:Ivy leagues like to see something. Just a 4.0 won't necessarily get you in. However, standing out in arts (drama, instruments, etc.) or leadership organizations (class committees, NHS, culture club, etc.) are just as good as participating in sports.
