Short answer part on CommonApp

<p>It asks you to talk about something you like to do or whatever, elaborate on it if you will…</p>

<p>The thing is, I don’t know what to talk about. I’ve considered to write about how much I love to help people with their homework and things of that nature on Yahoo! Answers, and although i think it would stand out I also think it would seem trivial. Anyone have any pointers on that?</p>

<p>Ask in the "CommonApp" section of CC. You'll get more viewers/potential help there.
It's a chance for you to write more about an extracurricular you may feel extra passion for or something you couldn't otherwise express in the "Activities" area of your app. At least that's how I interpreted it.</p>

<p>Same here except that I interpreted it as an elaboration on the activity, in addition to why I liked it so much.</p>

<p>I thought it asked to talk about something that was listed in the activities section.</p>

<p>ah okay thanks guys i guess i didnt really read through it too much</p>

<p>good luck :)</p>
