<p>For those of you who have been playing instruments purely as hobbies, outside of school...
Where did you include this in your CommonApp? </p>
<p>I play 4 instruments:
piano (started young, quit lessons in 8th grade but continue to play for pleasure and still perform)
violin (started lessons in 6th grade and still take + I play it in my school's top orchestra)
guitar (2 years)
bass guitar (self taught, 2 years). </p>
<p>So where do I include this information?</p>
<p>Extracurricular activities? (That takes up 4 spaces? Then what? For grade level, do I check all 4 boxes 9-12 [for piano and violin anyway], state the instrument, and that's that?)
Additional information - Resume? (What do resumes usually consist of anyway?) </p>
<p>I don't want to include it in my essay because... well... I feel like I would just be trying to cram this information in it, and that wouldn't be an effective essay. I dunno...</p>
<p>What do you think?</p>
