Flav_cool Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Hey, I tried searching, but I kind of found both answers. The question is simple. Let's say an activity was during sept-may of my 3rd year. Do I put down 2nd year university as level of education or third year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you put "2nd" if the activity occured during the the academic term of year 3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benhc911 Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 I think it is because he is basing it on completed level of education. I can see why... in a way it is comparable to the reason you wouldn't say you were in 3rd year during the summer between second and third... That being said, I went with current studying year, except summers, where I went with completed... I dunno, it just seemed right. I'm not TOO worried though... because the dates are correct, and they can see where I was in my education from my transcript if they think I was inconsistent >_> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HBP Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Be consistent. I used the current year, but summers I used the previous year, like above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that time would be "2nd year of university" education level. Be consistent. I used the current year, but summers I used the previous year, like above. This is how I approached it.

Just be logical and consistent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
