<p>So I know that most of you don't have this dilemma, but for the other cali applicants out there...</p>

<p>On the Georgetown app, there's section in which you check boxes for all of your activities in high school. There's a box for the national honor society, but there isn't one for the california scholarship federation (CA's equivalent to NHS). Should I:
-check the NHS box anyway, since they're so similar, or
-write "california scholarship federation" at the bottom of the page, where you can specify other activities
???</p>

<p>If you have nothing else to put in the "other" section, put CSF. Otherwise, I don't think they'll ever know if you check NHS. </p>

<p>Akajjred is from California, he might have a better opinion.</p>

<p>that's kind of my dilemma... if i put CSF in the "other" section, that's one more activity that i can't list...</p>

<p>oh, and ps:
for the "other skills/talents" section, should i just LIST other talents (i.e. "playing piano, surfing like there's no tomorrow" etc) or should i write it out? (i.e. "I play the piano and surf like a madwoman.") - but phrased much better of course.</p>

<p>I put it in one of the others...like aren't 97, 98, and 99 write in ones? I'm in both so I checked NHS and then typed in CSF for the other.</p>

<p>I am from Cali and so I just put CSF in the other section and I didnt check NHS cuz at my school we dont have it.</p>
