very helpful but now I have to fluff up all my activities from high school

[@elizabethbarton6705]

More helpful than any other video I’ve seen! Thank you!

[@ConquerCollegeAdmissions]

Glad to hear that Elizabeth! :)

[@sophiebrennan8141]

So helpful!

[@teissi]

I disagree that you should fill out ALL 10 activities. You should do so only if they all are solid and strong. Admission counselor will always know if you put a particular activity just to take space in your application

Filling out the activities section of the Common Application raises a lot of questions! I've answered all of them for you in this video! Comment below if you have additional questions! Best of luck to all the amazing seniors working on their college applications!

[@aayushbhatta7091]

What if i have done different activities in comparision to the major i am willing to take? What if i have not done any activity related to my major?

[@jenniferjordan966]

So helpful thank you

[@allisonmae3445]

Thank you so much for the video! Best one I've seen on the activities section. I always hear that order matters, but as I'm filling out the Common App, it's automatically putting my activities in chronological order. Has the Common app changed or am I missing something?

[@justinryan5433]

also if you could get back to me soon, should i put down sports and jobs i had during highschool? how can i turn that into a results driven description? thank you

[@sj-bs1pc]

How do we do it for sports?

[@merongebremariam396]

You said that colleges don't need our laundry list and also fill 10 of the activities. Which one should I use?

[@isabellar.2881]

what tense should we use if we are still doing the activity in 12th grade? present or past? I have seen so many people use both and are not consistent

[@peachykp5614]

I think you're supoposed to always talk in present tense unless you''re no longer participating in the activity.

[@evawuerth2024]

Is it okay if I mention my most important extracurriculars in my supplemental essay but not in my common app essay?

[@mohammadedrismehrabi1298]

Dear respected Julie, I need you urgently for my college essay🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@guneskayat4621]
