Columbia Application

<p>Their online application is getting somewhat annoying. They give barely any space to list accomplishments. For example, they ask you to list 3-5 of your most meaningful awards/honors and to succinctly describe them.
Then they give you two short lines... It took me a whole line just to list the title of one award. If i abbreviate, they probably won't know what it is. </p>

<p>This is especially problematic when the majority of your best accomplishments are academic tournaments and testing (debate and math) AMC/AIME.etc</p>

<p>how are the rest of you coping with this?</p>

<p>Use abbreviations. I assure you that the adcoms know the common stuff like AIME/AMC.</p>
