Anyone know what kind of answer they're looking for?

Are we supposed to write something meaningful here? BU gives you 1400 characters to answer this so just wondering..

My answer so far is like 3 sentences, and basically says "I'll be doing X, maybe Y, hopefully Z." Is this something I should expand on, say why I'm choosing some activity, what I hope to get out of it, or can I just be concise and leave it at what I have?

what is the exact wording of the question?

I would probably add more than just im doing blah blah and blah

I am doing full time research in a lab and volunteering at a hospital. I have one paragraph talking about what the lab researches (in very general terms) and what I doing and then just basically have one sentence at the end that say I hope to continue to develop as a scientist and gain some skills I can use throughout my career.

I then have a 3 sentence paragraph talking about my volunteer position and then what I hope to provide to patients and hope to gain personally.

So mine is in total about 1000 characters if that helps.

I wrote three sentences, I didn't go into detail, but I'm not sure if that was the right way to go about it. Maybe I should've added "learning to surf" and "bar hopping on a nightly basis."

I wrote one sentence for my 2 year gap activities. That made me feel lazy that I only needed one sentence. But then I didn't care because I got accepted 😀
