<p>Hello people,</p>
<p>I'm going to fill in the Activities section of my Common App now. The thing is, I'm an Indian student. And our school didn't have any "Debate Team" or "Debate Group" or something like that, where you held a position and served for some time. You were selected for a competition at a time and you went. This is what I did.</p>
<p>In my 4 years of high school, I participated in 3 debate competitions. Got the individual 1st prize in 1 (inter-school) and the team 1st prize in the other 2 (intra-city, inter-city). I came 1st in 2 extempore competitions (inter-school). I came 1st in 1 Science talk (inter-school) too.</p>
<p>Now, how do I enter these in my application? Do I enter each individually? But won't that hog space? Will it still make an impact? Would you recommend I enter all these 1st prize events - even the team ones? Or should I not?</p>
<p>Any other tips you can offer? Please help! I don't even have access to a counselor!</p>
