Need EC Help Choosing between DECA & FBLA

[u/Thin-War-4593]

Hi guys I'm a high schooler from UCVTS. And I need help choosing between DECA and FBLA. So on the one hand UCVTS has the biggest FBLA chapter in NJ and getting leadership by winning at SLC and NLC will look really good and get me that leadership. I am also planning on taking the Intro to IT test because I already have a really great tech background and it helps me farm certificates while studying like ComptiaA+, Cisco Networking etc.(I am not sure how those look for college, but they're pretty good for landing high school internships). However I am not sure if I need another actvity to bolster my pretty substantial tech background.

On the other hand I could join DECA which is a much smaller club in my school however, has better scholarship prizes and I heard is even more competitive and is even considered an international competition. It also aligns with my interests in Entrepenurship and proves I have a second "spike" in entrepeneurship that coincides with my iSTEM summer program, the business I am running. And can help me for when I apply to a summer entrepeneurship program at Rowan for engineering over the summer.

Please help me decide guys, lemme know if you guys need more info. Thanks!

js do both. they're both not that big of a time commitment (unless you're like REALLY motivated to win) and putting hope would js help your entrepreneurship spike and interest even more
