<p>I am rushing off to the post office in a few minutes to mail my "What Else?" form that I THOUGHT could be submitted online, but apparently not.</p>
<p>I am using the form to discuss my community service work, most of which has taken place in the form of trips. I briefly discussed three of the trips in my SUMMERS answer, but the other ones have thus far gone undocumented.</p>
<p>I have around 800 hours of community service that I would like to share, but I don't know the best way to document it. Would a list or an essay be more effective? </p>
<p>I received a scholarship to go to Honduras last January to serve on a foreign mission there. I have a short essay (maybe 350 words) about it that I never used on the Princeton app. Would it be a bad idea to put this little essay with a list (Trip - Date - Hours - Work (i.e. Construction) - NOTHING LONG or fancy) of the other trips? </p>
<p>Somebody please help and hurry!!! Post office closes soon!</p>
<p>Personally I don't feel that they're really looking for a full blown 350 words to read in the What Else section. However, if you feel like it's well written, I'm sure it wouldn't hurt.</p>
<p>For the community service--maybe a compromise: a paragraph or so--not a full-blown essay, but not a list either. Though if you have limited time, a list would be just fine and serve your purposes well.
I agree with amacing about the essay. It's not necessary or even probably helpful, but it couldn't certainly couldn't hurt, and if you feel strongly about it, go right ahead and include it!</p>
<p>Haha thank you everybody!! I really liked the little paragraph I had written about Honduras so I put it on there along with a little list. The whole thing was short though, it could be read in less than 5 minutes easily, and even if they don't read the little essay part, the list is there.</p>
