<p>yeah, so under the "If you have participated in any significant research activity outside of school, please provide a brief description and limit your response to one or two paragraphs." optional part of the app, do they want a really general description (like drug design) or kind of scientific (like the inhibition of a certain enzyme and stuff) or like an abstract?</p>
<p>how long is 1-2 paragraphs? lol</p>
<p>Nothing technical, a general overview is good enough. Use words that any person off the street would understand. I'm pretty sure the admissions office don't want to read about what chemical inhibits what cofactors which are needed to activate what enzymes in the catalysis of what reaction.</p>
<p>oooh same question. i'm debating whether to say something like: see attached sheet for abstract.</p>
<p>Good question, I'm in the same dilemna between submitting an abstract and writing a general essay.</p>
