Co-curricular activities are always an asset for sure. How else can we fill up our Resume to our satisfaction. At the time of an interview, it functions like a tool, for the interviewer. If it comes to that, all our traits count.

Yes they give some weightage to the curricular activities however they mainly concern with your academic performance and the point you get in the score card for getting a admission.
