<p>Wow so I realize that there about a million questions on this thread about extra cirriculars but i am really really confused. </p>
<p>in the Academics section where it says 'honors' do i put honors related to school like national merit? My school doesnt have an honor role or student of the month so what else can I put? </p>
<p>and then in activities where it says describe each activity and "positions, honors" etc, is that where i put awards that i won in specific clubs like science fair or speech and debate? </p>
<p>I'm confused because the awards I won on different levels (like regional, state, national) can't be specified in the activities section (but they can in the academic honors section) , but they arent academic awards so i cant list them on the academic honors right? </p>
<p>Also when it says provide details, do i just provide details ABOUT the activity, like what it stands for or more like what i did or learned? </p>
<p>thanks so much--i'm just SO CONFUSED RIGHT NOW :/ please help!</p>
<p>You can put National Merit under honors. Also things like AP scores, if you’re an AP Scholar. Extracurricular activity awards go under the activity section. Sometimes it’s a bit fuzzy when it comes to whether awards are academic or not. Use your best judgment. Just give a general listing, like “3rd place state” is fine. I don’t see on the application where it asks about details about an activity. They probably mean just give a very brief explanation about the activity, like what you did in the club.</p>
<p>No worries; don’t stress out about it. The application isn’t meant to be complicated. Fill it out to the best of your ability.</p>
<p>Alright then i’ll leave the clubs in extra cirriculars. Also when will we know if we were national merit scholars? Is there an official letter or something?</p>
<p>What if I have officer positions as well as award that I need to fill out for an extra cirricular activity and it doesnt all fit? I know there’s an additional info option, so should i put the positions on the application and then attach a list of awards or vice versa? Does it matter? </p>
<p>Thanks so much dchow08, i really appreciate the help!</p>
