Sandwich Posted September 23, 2010 Report Share Posted September 23, 2010 You can do as many different activities as you want to fulfil the criteria, if that's what you mean? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mahuta ♥ Posted September 23, 2010 Report Share Posted September 23, 2010 You need to enroll in CAS activities enough to complete the 150 hours, it doesn't matter how many at all. Although I think my CAS coordinator told us that an activity shouldn't give you more than 20 hours. Which means, you need at least 8 activities to complete the 150 hours. Don't worry yourself too much about CAS, as long as you start it this year, you will finish the hours. Just make sure you participate in any activities that your school provides, like camping, some enviroment things (may be counted as service or even action).

Julie Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 Our CAS coordinator prefers us to be involved in a few long-term activities, rather than billions of short-term activities. It demonstrates, apparently, to the IBO and the people grading your CAS journal that the long-term activities impacted you, which is the point of CAS. If you do little activities too much, for instance I MCed for a Talent Show, than they just assume you are collecting hours instead of doing something log-term and significant.
