<p>I don’t really have any official awards to put in the honors section. Should I put school level academic and music letters (similar to varsity letters) in the honors section?</p>

<p>Also, if activities have a sporadic time commitment, should I average out the hours? For one of my music activities it’s about six weeks of five hours per week, and then two weeks of around 25 hours per week. Should I just average this out? (So it’d be eight weeks of 10 hours per week.)</p>

<p>School honors for academics and music are fine awards to list. Averaging out the hours of your activities is fine and that’s what most people do.</p>
