<p>Two part question:</p>

<p>I have seen similar questions, but there's been conflicting perspectives so I'd like to clear this up. For the "activities" section, does anything that we do qualify? Obviously I wouldn't list "playing video games" or other unproductive things, but as someone who does not have great extracurriculars (as I think they are usually called) I'm conflicted on whether or not I should list things like piano lessons. The reason I'm hesitant is because every activity listed asks you to list position or honor. However for activities like the ones I just named they don't really come with honors or positions.</p>

<p>My second question is quick. What does "PG" stand for? My guess would be "post graduate" but that didn't really make sense to me either.</p>

<p>Thanks a lot.</p>

<p>That space is for putting details about your activity that wouldn’t be apparent just from the name of the activity. </p>

<p>On the side where the hints are, it gives the meaning of the acronyms.</p>

<p>Participation grade levels
The acronyms are as follows:
9 -12 = High School grades
PG= Post Graduate
FY= College First Year
JR= College Junior
SO= College Sophomore
SR= College Senior</p>
