<p>For the short Common app essay in which we have to describe one of our activities, which activity would be the best to write about?
An activity that has been mentioned in another essay for one college, but is not mentioned in the supplemental essays for other colleges.
An activity that has been mentioned in almost all of the supplemental essays but is directly related to my future plans.
An activity that has has not been mentioned in an essay but is a hobby and has no connection whatsoever to my future plans.</p>
<p>Just don't duplicate what you write.. like if you already have it in the supplement for a school, don't put it in the short answer for that school.</p>
