mehunga Posted July 15, 2015 Report Share Posted July 15, 2015 Anything you do on your own, do you need verifiers? Or do you only include things that you can get verifiers for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdj78we9jtf2o3mgfvj298j Posted July 15, 2015 Report Share Posted July 15, 2015 You can either put it in the Other section if you don't have a verifier (some schools don't look at this section though). You can also try to get a friend or someone who may have been tangentially involved with your hobby to verify for you (e.g. I'm getting a high school band member to verify that I play guitar).

thatonekid Posted July 15, 2015 Report Share Posted July 15, 2015 Just put someone who knows you do the hobby. They don't have to be directly involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Username100 Posted July 15, 2015 Report Share Posted July 15, 2015 I think you should be proactive about this strategy. Since you likely don't have anyone who can verify whether you go to the gym, you should go on the offensive and tell them that you're above having to dignify their petty accusations implying you need to verify anything. Smear some feces on the application, along with some racial epithet and they won't try to bother you to get any actual verifier out of you.

They don't have to be directly involved. Whaaaa... is right. Hahaha. I actually would like some advice on this! I do hobbies and didn't think (or didnt know) whether to try and include them or not. As they are not the group setting kind of hobbies... but on the other hand, I've been doing them for so. many. years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatonekid Posted July 22, 2015 Report Share Posted July 22, 2015 Include them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maybenow Posted July 26, 2015 Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 Hmm.. if you have a hobby of for example, doing yoga for 7 years, how would you include that? I didn't think there would be a way of including 'independently' done hobbies, like the ones not involving an organized group or whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use them as the verifier. Many people have 'independent' hobbies and include them in their application. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems crazy that you have to do this. Jeez. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
