<p>Ok so in my common app college essay I am talking about how my move, volunteer experiences, and debate shaped the way I am today.
However, for my short answer essay do I just further explain my most important activity, which is debate or should I talk about swimming, which I participated for 3 years in high school but now for my last year of high school I am not so fanatic about compared to debate.
In other words,
College essay includes:

  1. Move
  2. Volunteering
  3. Debate
    Short Answer will include either:
  4. Swimming
    or
  5. Debate
    Thanks!!!</p>

<p>If you think you went into enough detail about debate in the essay, might be a good idea to do swimming in the short answer.</p>
