Starting the Activities List for the Common App
Can you really sum up your life in a list of ten things? What if you can't think of ten things to write about?
The Activities List is the first big challenge of the Common App. It takes time to refine your list, and even more time to figure out exactly what you want to say in the limited space of 150 characters. You also need to clearly indicate your role, accomplishments and time commitment.
So let's ease into the application process by doing the activities list. If possible, start it as soon as your junior year ends. You'll feel a great sense of accomplishment with this head start.
