<p>Say I worked in a hospital one summer for 4 weeks and 30 hours a week, and then I worked there during the following summer for 10 weeks and 10 hours a week. In the activities section, if I indicate that I worked there for 7 weeks and 20 hours a week in the wk/yr and hr/wk boxes, should I notify the colleges about the fact that I averaged the two times together in the additional information section, or does it not matter?</p>
<p>It doesn’t matter. For a lot of people it’s like that–it’s definitely not necessary to give an exact answer. Just put down one number that you think is a good representation. In this case, the average sounds fine.</p>
