<p>Hey, I'm filling out applications and when they say to "list" something, do they really mean list it? Do they want an explination, a number of years involved, hours a week? Or do they just want a plain old list?</p>
<p>I would note number of years/hours a week next to each activity, and also a short explanation if the name of the activity doesn't reveal what it's actually about (or if you just want to be more specific about what you did in that activity).</p>
<p>Yes, when they say "list", they really do mean list. Funny, isn't it? And doesn't the common app. have a space for years involved and number of hours/week?</p>
