Two Questions?

Colleges and Universities A-Z Columbia University

<p>1) In part 1 of app, there's a section called "preliminary question" but when I click on it, it just tells me that I HAVE to answer the question. Unfortunately, the question is nowhere to be found. What is going on?</p>

<p>2) When it asks me to list extracurriculars in order of preference from the list, what are they looking for? I mean a lot of items on the list interest me. For example, I do a lot of community service because I'm passionate about helping others, but that's already well reflected in my application--would they rather have me put "outdoor adventures" or things I do to relax, etc?</p>

<p>^Only a fool would expect to be admitted to such a great school.
Besides, if you don’t have anything helpful to say, then please don’t.</p>

<p>Chill. Go over it with your school counselor. I sense some disconnect with the terminology. They will be able to help you through the process and also advise you if it is a good choice based on your scores and your extracurriculars. If you are not sure what they are and you don’t have a long list of them it may be too late to get them now…</p>
