<p>Should I put (08-Current) or (08-11) for an activity? Technically I will not be leading it after 2011 but I saw that a lot of people put ( -Current)</p>
<p>I know it is a minor detail but it counts for me! Please help!</p>
<p>Also is it okay to abbreviate my school’s name when mentioning it in the activities section
i.e. CS Symphony instead of Confidential School’s Symphony</p>
<p>can anyone answer this/these?</p>
<p>where do you put (08-Current)? In activity? you select which grade you perfom the ec.
As for the symphony name, better to use your school name.</p>
<p>Thanks anurse for your reply,</p>
<p>yes in the activities section but for leadership positions such as President (08-11)/(08-current) in the positions,honors,etc section</p>
<p>Okay, then you probably just mark 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th grades, that would be fine. The space is very limitted. I did not put the year at all.</p>
<p>thanks anurse</p>
<p>yeah I’ll just indicate the years.
Luckily I have enough space to go VP(08-09) and President (09-Current) or (09-11)?? That question still has not been answered…
anyone?</p>
<p>!! Now I see what you mean! My writing is getting cut off in the PDF. Does it show like that to the ad coms too?</p>
<p>!! Urgent!
For the activities section I wrote i.e.
Position: Co-President
Details and Accomp: Organize performances, choreograph dances</p>
<p>I felt pretentious to put “I” in the details and accomp section.
What do most people put for this section? I feel it’s better to show about yourself instead of explaining to club if it’s obvious…
Thank you!!</p>
<p>bump? 10 char please?</p>
<p>can anyone answer the question two posts above?? I’d really appreciate it! :)</p>
<p>If your writing is cut off in the preview, it will be cut off for the colleges. You should shorten it so that it fits within the space provided.</p>
<p>On the Activities List, write your details and accomplishments in whatever format is most concise and effective. I wouldn’t worry about it too much. If it helps, though, I didn’t use “I” very much (if at all), but instead said things like “Gathered …; Organized …”</p>
