"last two summers"

<p>So this past summer I visited my family in New Jersey and while I was there I took part in the Princeton info session/campus tour (it was amazing, I nearly cried). For the supplement, would it sound really...desperate if I wrote that as one of the things I did in the past two summers? Or would they appreciate the fact that I took the time to visit their campus?</p>

<p>ALSO is this question supposed to be answered in a narrative form or list form? </p>

<p>I expect it would come across as fawning and sycophantic. I recommend picking a different topic.</p>

<p>I have always preferred narrative over list form. Think about it, which would you rather read?</p>

<p>If you chose to do a list, you might as well mention that you visited Princeton. I chose to do narrative form and focus on just one thing per summer, but it is really up to you. </p>

<p>^ thank you! I decided to write a narrative about my first job instead…thought that might be a better thing to talk about.</p>

<p>I mean, I did a little narrative but it was very list-like for the second half, and I got in. I would write about a few things, or focus on one then list other stuff at the end. </p>
