Types of activities in 3 ABS essays

I am covering the 3 ABS statements with an Extracurricular activity, Employment, and Research. Does it look bad if none of the 3 ABS statements are from the 'Volunteering' category?

Nope, won't matter - you're never going to cover every single ABS section with 3 ABS statements.  Pick the best 3 activities, regardless of section, that you think you can describe yourself with the 4 clusters.

I have a related question. In terms of "Research" would be appropriate to elaborate on an entire Master's degree? Or would that not be considered an "activity" rather part of your education. Would it be better then to include a scholarship that was awarded based on merit (i.e. grades, research potential) in order to talk about attributes related to your degree within these statements?
