<p>I'm having trouble figuring out how many hours to put for my activities, since several of them were not done for a constant amount of hours but rather the time I spent on them has varied over time. I need to find some kind of average, I guess. But whenever I think I've settled on a time, I start thinking it sounds too high or too low. So, I'm wondering, what do you guys think are reasonable or good hours for activities?</p>
<p>It just has to be an approximate guess really. The reason that column exists is to show your level of involvement in the activity; so put higher hours for the activities in which you are most involved and lower hours for less important activities. </p>
<p>One thing you can do is look at the last week and estimate how many hours you spent on various activities. That will give you a rough idea of how many hours to put on the application.</p>
<p>I have the same problem with the hours. If I count them they add up to 45 hours which is a little much. On sample EC lists I saw 71 hours and 25 hours. Now I got 23 hours after a revision. Can a few people list their hours to get an idea how many are popular? I surely wonder how the sample one reache 71 hours. There are physical limits arent there?</p>
<p>71 hours per week?
that seems kind of. wack. even 23-25 per week.</p>
<p>yeah. now i'm getting nervous b/c i only have around 5 hours a week for most of my activities and some even less</p>
<p>Oh Come on you guys tell us about your hours.</p>
<p>@sarah where are u applying?</p>
