I’ve seen many people say “don’t try to fill everything in, try to write about the things that were meaningful to you” but nothing about filling out the whole thing. I put in 10 activities, all of which matters to me in some significant way. 150 characters weren’t enough to explain their significance in enough detail, but out of all my activities (I did a lot during high school, and even just counting the ones I liked the most, it would be over 10) the 10 I listed are my most important ones.
Is it okay to fill out the whole thing? Sounds like a really stupid question but I wasn’t sure since I’ve only seen advices like “try not to fill the whole thing”. I didn’t have to try to fill the whole thing.
Yes. Prioritize the most important or the ones you are most passionate about. You say they all are but you must make choices. They can’t all be equal. If you were only allowed to do 10 which would you choose and why. Describe them in an active way - not just listing them but how you contributed.
