"Please tell us how you have spent the last two summers..."-Essay or description?

<p>My question is pretty self explanatory. Would you write an essay focusing on the most significant activity for each summer (since they give you plenty of space, 2500 chars)? Would you write a bullet-pointed list of activities with a short description at the end of each?</p>

<p>Would appreciate any input on this. Thanks in advance!</p>

<p>You can put two or three activiies that you did with a quiet long description.Dont think about the limit of words.Write something good and honest even if its not very long.</p>

<p>Good luck:)</p>

<p>I remember a big CC discussion on this a couple of years ago when DS was applying. The consensus was that it doesn’t matter. Do what works best for you.</p>

<p>Good luck.</p>

<p>I just gave short descriptions covering my main activities.</p>

<p>I wrote a quasi-essay of about 4 paragraphs with each paragraph describing an aspect of what I did with my summers (coursework, travel, etc.). My response was right around the word limit.</p>
