<p>Is it okay if I send in a resume of my activities in addition to (not in lieu) the 5 activities and 7 scholastic distinctions that I fill out in the application?</p>
<p>While technically you can send in anything, I think what we've been hearing clearly indicates they'd really like to move away from that laundry-list-of-accomplishments feeling that a resume gives. MIT understands you're probably going to have more than five activities and seven awards, but they want to know which are the most integral to you being you.</p>

We expect that most of our applicants are involved with more than five activities, but in our application process, we are primarily concerned with the five things you do that are most important to you. If you like, you may send in additional information (sometimes called a "resume" or "brag sheet"), and we will certainly consider it, but please do fill out our forms as completely as possible.

<p>So the word would be sure, as long as you still fill out the section in the application.</p>
<p>thanks a lot! I feel a lot (or somewhat) better now!</p>
