<p>Alrite, so the short answer on the common app asks you to elaborate on one of your activities...does it have to be something I'm currently involved in, or can it be about a summer program that I did?</p>
<p>I think it could be both..</p>
<p>a summer home-stay and sight-seeing program in a foreign country counts, i hope?</p>
<p>it can be both..... but i recommend you to write about something you are involved in deeply, not for fun....</p>
<p>do we write out our feelings and stuff or just like outline the activities...
i am lost on that....150 is tooo little to fit everything in</p>
<p>it can be an activity you did but have completed.
I would focus more on why the activity is important than on explaining everything you did.</p>
