Hello,
So i'm not sure if this question has been asked, but should you put down activities that you attempted in good faith but utterly failed at?
For example, during my senior year, I wanted to get involved with research and decided to join a neurologist's research group who was studying apathy in patients. I told them that I had a background in FORTRAN programming and that I would be willing to learn another computer language to help them. Unfortunately, despite putting over 100+ hours into trying to learn C++ to develop a program for diagnostic results, I really couldn't be of any use and withdrew from the group.
I believe there's a strong story for not reaching beyond your limits in this case. I also learned a decent amount about neurology and the clinic concept of apathy vs depression.
Thanks for the feedback
