MIT Application "ACTIVITIES" section question

<p>You can talk about them in the essays (?)
Use Additional Information (?)</p>

<p>Or, perhaps, if you didn’t list them in the top 5, they weren’t as important to you? (Again, I’m just guessing - no offense). But then listing something that you are not passionate about would add nothing to your application(?)</p>

<p>I guess they set up the limit to find out what you really like. Without it, one could just list all EC’s he/she had…and there would be no way to find out which activities the person put his/her heart in, and in which he/she participated just to look good to college X</p>

<p>That’s just my opinion :)</p>
