Last Minute Question

<p>Hi, I’m finishing up my application for Uwash and I’m complexed by two things. First off, for the Extracirricular part how do I exactly go about making it? I currently have it like this-
9th grade-
Soccer- 8 hours a week, for 5 months
Tennis- 7 hours a week, year round
Soccer Referee- 5 hours a week, for 5 months
Wesley Methodist Church summer camps, mission trip to North Carolina, and weekly worship- 4 hours a week, year round
Drama Preformances as Snowboy in “West Side Story” and Grandpa in “Bang Bang You’re Dead”</p>

<p>10th grade-
Soccer- 8 hours a week, for 5 months</p>

<p>thats not the entire thing, but you get the idea. Did they simply want you to do it like…
Tennis- 7 hours a week, 4 years
I dunno the instructions were a little odd</p>

<p>The other question is if you think I will be marked down for not having one of the supplemental essays. I easily have enough time to compose another one before the deadline, but I didn’t feel like I could relate the the topic.</p>

<p>thank you very much for your help and good luck to all of us</p>

<p>Optional essays should be done if they are going to read them. Doing optional stuff shows initiative. But don’t just do them if they aren’t that good. Also, for the extracurricular list thing, just whatever is easiest to read, there is no standard. As long as you list the time thingy. ie. 3 hours a day, one day a week, 2 weeks a month. or whatever it is. you should also go into a little more detail than just Tennis or Soccer. Tennis Varsity? Tennis #3 singles? etc. But if you already have a 70AI, they won’t look at that stuff anyways. So if you have a 70 AI or above, don’t fret too much about the other stuff, just get it in, in time.</p>
