I'm not really sure what I should put in this section. If you don't mind, can you post some general things you guys put in this section.

Jcancollegebound

I put nothing.

dain3265

me, too. But you could put anything you want.

areagris

I put in things that I wanted to highlight which didn't fit anywhere else. (Unpaid internship, published short story, etc.)

fhg

I put nothing (didn't feel there was anything to add that would make a significant difference).

lookbeyond

I put down my "Summer Activities" (i.e., assorted programs, volunteer projects) because I didn't want to use up my EC spaces on them...

goldenratiophi

I just said that the recommendations letters were being sent by snail mail.

I attatched my resume there, since it didn't exactly fit anywhere else, this let me only have to put my major extracurriculars in the other part of the common app. but made sure they knew about my other stuff (i.e. volunteer work)
and i kept it a page--so it wouldn't be too annoying
according to my councelor, this is the normal thing to do

Jayzen

I put nothing also. I didn't think anything else was worth putting on there and I didn't want them to think I was padding my resume.

bank1019

Didn't use it.

TheBlackLantern

i am using it to explain my citizenship status and family info

rsxwheeeeee

did what goldenratiophi did

Astonisher

I used it to list additional APs/Honors

I also attached a scanned copy of a letter from India when I volunteered as a tour guide at a very prestigious monument in New Delhi, and attached it to the end.

Then after that, I attached a copy of a JHU paper that gave me college credit for an Investigations in Engineering course that I mentioned in the main application.

(All this in a PDF)

amsbluedevil24

I put in a proposal that I created for a service program I started.

Kaznack

I'm thinking of putting in a chapter from my unpublished novel. Is 2000 words too long? I'd ask them simply to read however much or little of it they want to.
