<p>It says to list the required readings, books... and then later list the films/concerts/exhibitions, you enjoyed... Do you list them, or can you put some descriptions in parentheses? Thanks in advance.</p>
<p>Edit: they give you 300 characters for them.. I can list about 30 or I can list only 8 and describe a little for each</p>
<p>Edit2: should i list years for films and authors for books as well? Thanks</p>
<p>Edit3: I think I'm OCD, do we need to use up all the 300 characters? Can I just list 5 since it asks you for the books you prefer MOST. If I list all, it feels like I'm just listing out what I read...</p>
<p>Bump… so many views but no reply ._.? Any advice would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks!</p>
<p>hahahahhahah it’s so funny that people are viewing this but not replying</p>
<p>ok I simply listed the names of the books/films/everything else that I enjoyed. I was thinking about at least naming the authors but I decided not to.</p>
<p>ahhh i’m having the same problem! for the books that i read for pleasure, i only listed about 6 or 7 because a. i simply have not ever had the time in high school to “read for pleasure” L0L and b. one cannot be expected to enjoy every single book that they have read</p>
<p>if i were you, i would definitely use up as much as space as possible without appearing to be trying too hard for the required readings as well as the films/plays/shows/exhibits question!</p>
<p>I listed them and included authors in parentheses. It asks you to list what you enjoyed MOST, so if it’s only 5 books, then so be it. Some people read a lot and enjoy 30 books, others have a smaller selection. In my case, I listed almost every book I read for pleasure and almost every concert, movie, and exhibit I went to because I wouldn’t have kept reading/gone to see the movie, concert, or exhibit if I didn’t enjoy it.</p>
<p>Edit: And who cares if you use up every character? So long as you express your interests should it matter whether you do it in 30 characters or in 300 characters?</p>
<p>I have a quick question relating to this too! It says to list required readings from the past year, but can I list required reading I liked from Sophomore and Freshman year?</p>
<p>I wouldn’t, but it’s not like they can prove that you weren’t required to read it this past year.</p>
<p>i wrote a few from sophomore year just cuz they were such good books.</p>
<p>by the way, for the “performances” section, i had about 10 movies, 1 concert, and 2 tv shows. no museums or exhibits or actual shows… lol</p>
<p>I made lists with the authors names for the books. I didn’t use the 300 characters, just listed the ones I genuinely loved. For the entertainment I enjoyed, I had about 5 or 6 musicals, art exhibit, and 2 movies.</p>
