<p>i'm sure that this question has been asked a million times, but how long is too long for the extended?</p>
<p>Under the Extracurricular section, it asks for "average time spent"... I am currently a freshman in college looking to transfer for the spring semester... do I put down how much time I have spent on an activity ALREADY OR how much I WILL spend on the activity throughout the fall semester. I hope this is not a silly question... thanks.</p>
<p>yeah i want to know too--did u guys but how much time you ALREADY spent or how much time you WILL SPEND by this semester. and should i not put activities that i only spend a hr a week on (clubs)</p>
<p>calculating my activities hours...haha</p>
<p>i spend 2000+ hours a year on them. a good portion of it on sports</p>
<p>americangraffiti thats like six hours a day, every day.</p>
<p>btw i love that movie. its one of my favorites.</p>
<p>At our school, which does the same thing, the courses are (usually) labeled as both: AP/IB English Literature 12, HL</p>
<p>For the 7 ECs where it asks for weeks per year. There is one EC that i started this summer. Should I put how many weeks I have so far or how many I will (approximately) have? Thank you</p>
<p>My school forms were sent weeks ago to the college I recently sent in my online Common App + Supplement to. The app and supp have been downloaded. The school form status says offline, will this change soon or does that indicate a problem?? Do I need to call?</p>
<p>Did anyone fill out the Additional Info part of the Common App? Is this section supposed to be used like an extra essay? Or if we want to talk about extracurriculars, is this our chance to brag? What's the format of this?</p>
<p>i used it to be funny and quirky and to tell my ap score</p>
<p>be yourself and say soemthign that they totally wouldn't know otherwise</p>

No, this section is for clubs. Since you can only list seven clubs in the club section, this is a place to add more to it. Just in case there are other clubs you wanted to add.</p>
<p>Thanks for replying!</p>
<p>Another questions: For the Academics section, under Secondary Schools, it states that "If you have attended any other Secondary Schools, summer schools, or programs since ninth grade, check this box." It says SUMMER SCHOOLS OR PROGRAMS. So does this mean that we can put UCLA there (I went for NYLF) even though it's not a secondary school? The section is still labeled as Secondary School though, even though the directions say "summer schools or programs".</p>
<p>I can't put NYLF in the college/university section since I didn't get credit at UCLA. </p>
<p>I'm really confused. So please help!</p>
<p>Question: If a supplement says list any schools you have attended outside the US from elementary school onwards, does that include elementary school?</p>
<p>for the common app, if the postmark deadline is nov 1 for early action, does that mean 11:59 pm nov 1 or 11:59 pm oct 31?</p>
<p>I have the same question. Can someone who confirmed that everything got in tell us if the School Form section still says "offline?" thanks</p>
<p>Kyun90 -
My son sent in an app two weeks ago. He got an email confirmation from the school the next day. It still says offline. I dont think that field is usually used.</p>
<p>If your deadline is Nov 1, get it in today, and as soon as possible. I doubt it will be pretty at the CA site tonight. As fas at time, it might have to do with what time zone the school is in. So, again, get it in. NOW!! :-)</p>
<p>I have a question about the courses section. I have several full year classes, each worth 1 credit total. So my A+P, Biochem & Stats classes are 1 credit, so I would write it in both 1st & 2nd semester boxes, but should I write "1 credit" in each box? Would they think my full year classes get 2 credits, or do they understand it's a full year class with 1 credit total?</p>
<p>Also, if a school requires a School Report, Midyear, and Final report...they are all the same form. Obviously midyear and final mark is not for a while, so do i just have GC fill out the forms when that time rolls around and send them in then? So when I mail out the app in Dec. it will just be rec, transcript, and school report...?</p>
<p>if i apply ed to one school... can i edit my common app for my rd schools?</p>
<p>and if i apply ed1 and get declined can i apply ed2 at another school?</p>
