<p>If I am learning to code in my spare time, should I mention it on my common app? If yes, should I list how many hours I have put into it (around 20) in the additional information section of the application?</p>
<p>Seems better suited to the Activities Section.</p>
<p>Yeah but it is on my own, so its not organized by anyone…So would it still work in the activities section?</p>
<p>Yes. There is no reason why an activity has to be ‘organized’ to count.</p>
<p>Agree, this can go in activities. My D collect insects, and she put that as an activity (it is not organized, just something she does). She also monitors a bluebird trail (again, not organized), and she put that down in activities as well.</p>
