Question about Additional Information on application

<p>I go to a local Fine Arts School that is pretty well known, and fairly rigorous, for jazz piano, and have since my freshman year. I also joined the newspaper staff (we have the second best newspaper in the state, and have an All-Southern rating in the Southeastern Interscholastic Press Association) which takes up a period, since my sophomore year, because I've always been interested in Journalism. Because of this I've taken a few less AP classes (I've still got 6), and only took 3 years of foreign language (freshman year was my last). My guidance counselor should put this information into her recommendations and such, however I think I should probably talk about it too. Is this something I should put in Additional Information section, or should I make it a regular essay?</p>
