Fake community service hrs?

Well it’s best to be honest, but unless you’re lying really heavily (like saying 800 hours instead of 200), it probably wouldn’t be important anyways. Colleges wouldn’t pick you just cause you got 500 hours and the other guy who didn’t lie only got 400. As long as you show dedication and long term volunteering somewhere, it’s all good. And lots of people volunteer now, the hours don’t really mean anything. What looks better is if you get a leadership position IN your volunteering job (captain…leadership board…etc.)
