<p>For the Common App, there is a 150 word Activity short answers.
The prompt is as follows:</p>

<p>In the space provided below, please elaborate on one of your activities (extracurricular, personal activities, or work experience)(150 words or fewer).</p>

<p>Do I just explain what the activity is? (i.e. MUN involves debate, research, blahblah) or Do I make it more subjective and explain how it affected me? Or a combination of both?</p>

<p>Thoughts?</p>

<p>yeah im just doing mine too and i was wondering the same.</p>

<p>Subjective is the better way to go I believe.</p>

<p>Let them know about the club, what its mission is, and why its important to you. It’ll probably best to incorporate both into the essay. I know its hard to express its impact on you AND provide details of the club in just one paragraph, but its better than just going one way.</p>

<p>As you mentioned MUN,</p>

<p>You could explain what you did in MUN that made an impact on you…</p>
