Common app short answer help!

Applying to College

<p>So there's this question that I'm sure you'll all familiar with on the Common App:</p>

<p>In the space provided below, please briefly elaborate (150 words or fewer) on one of your activities (extracurricular, personal activities, or work experience).</p>

<p>First of all 150 words is not a lot of words. What kind of answer do I give to this question??</p>

<p>All it says is "elaborate," not "explain how this has impacted you" or something.</p>

<p>Aidez-moi s'il vous plait!</p>

<p>Give any answer you want. Be creative, or do straight description. Speak from the heart.</p>

<p>Do anything you like. And don't worry, most people are closer to 200 than 150 words.</p>
