Hello, I'm new here! I was filling out the AACOMAS activities section by translating experiences from my AMCAS app. I was wondering if anybody could lend their experience on 2 questions I had:
1. I had an entry in AMCAS called "Short-Term Collegiate Experience" which practically was a misc. section for a minor job and 2 extracurriculars I had. AACOMAS has no activity limit however, so should I expand on these or just get rid of it altogether?
2. I had an awards entry where I mashed everything together. In AACOMAS, they give us the option to describe those awards, so how much detail should I give them? Also, what would be considered "too many" achievements?

Thank you!
