<p>i'm having trouble filling out the extra curricular section of the common app. let's say we participated in a play and are applying to schools for theater, do you include all the plays you've ever done in this section? or do you just put down the activity such as, acting? as in, you put acting down as an activity and then talk about all the plays you have participated in in the description? does that work? someone with experience doing this please help</p>
<p>I would say just put down acting. in the description box given, just give a brief overview…something like participated in a number of plays, such as (list a couple plays here)
that’ll give you more room for other types of extra curriculars</p>
