Another Common App question

On the common app, what are they looking for in the Short Answer section? Is that something that will be weighted as heavily as the personal essay? I could use some advice please!

<p>Well, they just want you to use the space they've provided to talk a bit about your most meaningful EC. So... just briefly describe which one has been most meaningful, and uh... why. It's just a few lines, so obviously it's not going to be nearly as important as the personal essay.
Just their way of seeing what your priorities are and why.</p>
