Princeton Summer Supplement

So one of the supplements asks to tell what you did the last two summers.

For me, much of the ‘important stuff’ that i did in the summer is included in my activities section. Because it’s only 150 words, do i reiterate what I already said, or expand on what I have not, but mention the things I have written in my activities section.

Any guidance would be great! also, if you have already written yours, any info on how you did yours would be sweet!

THANKS!!

Yeah I’m expanding more on one of my summer activities that I listed in the Activities section of the Common App. So I’m touching on what I wrote on the Activities description too. I’m essentially doing the same thing I did on my Elaborate on an Extracurricular short essay.

For these types of questions, I’m not trying to be witty or clever or anything with my writing. I’m just explaining whatever activity they want more. Is this what you did too?

@PartyNextDoor ok, cool. So you’re only doing one EC? I don’t really have one that dominated my time so i was trying to fit in as much as possible. Is this a bad idea? Should I just focus on one?

@hsalem32 I’m not an expert but I think you should focus on 1 since they already gave you so little space to write
