How Much Additional Information is Too Much?

<p>I want to list my other ECs and describe what I do at my job in detail. Is the additional information section simply meant for prompt listing and short explanations? Also, do you think I could briefly list some of my internet activities, like I moderate some forums. (Or would that be going overboard) I don't exactly want to bore them with all of the stuff I do but I want to make sure my chances are at max.</p>

<p>Do not describe your job in detail. No admissions counselor has time to read the details nor to remember them. Even professional resumes do not describe jobs in detail. Unless your job is truly unique, a single sentence should do it. Bullet points are even better.</p>

<p>Do not describe your ECs in detail. Again, a single sentence or perhaps 2 should do it, even for unique activities. Bullet points are even better. If it's a standard activity, like playing on a team, an orchestra, Spanish Club or the like, no description is necessary.</p>

<p>A phrase saying "Moderate X on-line chat board" is sufficient mention of such activity.</p>

<p>If you have to ask "Is this too much?" the answer is Yes.</p>
