Hello all! I am filling out my application but do not know what is a preferred way of entering descriptions for extracurriculars, employment, activities, etc. I've been writing my descriptions "resume" style (Ex: "Assisted dentists in sterilizing....."), but I'm wondering if writing in first-person is preferred. Any advice?

It really doesn't matter, just as long as you are concise and consistent for every entry. There's no right or wrong way to do it, just pick one way and stick with it throughout.
