Filling out EC's section

Applying to College
1

<p>I have a lil problem with this section of the common app, because most of the EC's which are meaningful to me are quite unique and require more detail than a 15 char row. So, I could come up only with 4 activities which received my dedication that could be fit in the required space. </p>

<p>I know that I can use the additional info section, and I sure will. </p>

<p>Do you think it is better to write less in that section and than categorize in the additional info? Or to list everything I can put there (up to 7 of course) and continue in the info section as well?</p>

<p>Include as much information as you can in the EC section, even if it may not make sense without more detail. In the "position held/honors won" box, put "see resume for details", or something similar. Then put together a resume/info sheet with clear descriptions of the activities, and attach it in the Additional Info section.</p>
