<p>i'm trying to finalize my activities list since i have more than they allow me to list, and i'm wondering if i should include a summer camp that i went to before freshman and sophomore year. other activities have probably had slightly larger influences on me and have continued longer (my parents stopped being able to afford sending me there so it was only for two years) but should i list it since it's showing something i did with my summer? i've read that they look to make sure your summers are spent doing something useful, but should i prioritize demonstrating that over my activities during the school year?</p>
<p>Don’t think you are supposed to list anything prior to high school.</p>
<p>Wouldn’t worry too much about summers unless you did something outstanding or worked. </p>
<p>Son2 listed only 1 summer job on his app and got into all 15 schools he applied to.
Son1 did not get into all schools he applied to, top schools and was Val, but did not have anything so out of the norm on app… didn’t dig wells in a third world country, etc… </p>
<p>i wouldn’t worry so much about it.</p>
<p>ok thanks! any other thoughts on this?</p>
