<p>On college applications, should we describe our activities in 1st person or 3rd person?
Which is better?</p>
<p>For example, saying "I volunteered at the food shelter and received recognition" versus "Volunteered at the food shelter and received recognition"</p>
<p>You should always talk about yourself in the first person. Talking about yourself in the third person may be seen as crazy…</p>
<p>Oh okay. Cause I’ve seen resumes and brag sheets at my school where third person is used, haha. Thanks!</p>
<p>On the activities sheet you can just say “Volunteered at blah blah” so that you save room :)</p>
