How much detail for "activity" section?

[Guest Scholastica]

I'm just curious how much detail we are supposed to have in the "activity" section. If I had a leadership position, do I just state the name of the position, or can I elaborate a little and explain what my responsibilities were? But then, this will take up space and I won't be able to add as many activities onto the form as I wish... What do you suggest?

You need to describe briefly your role; otherwise, the Adcom won't know what you did.

 

What I did last year is to sacrifice some space for more important activities. The less important ones or the ones that seem relatively minor, you may not want to mention them if space does not allow. Of course, if you can afford the space, throw in as much activities as you want. I ran out of space last year, ending up re-editing everything to fit the pages.
