<p>Hey guys, for the common app short activity essay, is it supposed to be about an activity I did for a few years? or can it be about one special activity I did for a week one time?</p>
<p>Thanks in advance!</p>
<p>There is no right or wrong on what activity you choose. Keep in mind that your goal is to show adcoms more about who you are, what interests you, what abilities you have, how you think, why you think the way you do, and what you want to do with your life. Choose a topic with one or more of those goals in mind.</p>
