summer activities question

the harvard supplement question about summer activities (activity, dates, hours) is i think 3 lines long...is this question about your activities LAST summer (before senior year) or can u put notable activities from any of the summers during high school?

I believe they are refering to your last summer, but if you did something really impressive, then I don't see why you can't write it.
Just make sure it's so awesome that they could see why you circumvented the directions

I just doing w/e I think I should be. If they aren't giving more information than that then w/e they shouldn't be too ticked if I didn't exactly conform to their expectations, if they wanted something exact they would've asked.

I assume that just as Harvard (and other colleges) are interested in your jobs, courses and ECs throughout h.s., they also are interested in your summer activities throughout h.s., not just the summer before senior year.
