Gap Year Secondary Prompt

So, all my gap-year plans were included on my primary. Which means I have almost nothing new say in the secondary prompt. Should I just repeat what I am doing and leave it? Describe the activities again? I was hoping to offer some reflection since I have the room, but I don't know if it would just be overkill at this point. Thanks.

@Goro . @LizzyM Any insight on what they're looking for in a situation like this?

Just repeat it. I assume the prompt specifically asks what are you doing in your gap year.

Why did you include the information in the PS?

Yes, that is the prompt.

None of them were in my PS, they were in my W/A because they're all activities I am continuing.

Don't worry about the redindancy then

Some people will be looking to that secondary essay rather than combing through the W&A section before they go into the interview with you. Give them the scoop. Don't worry about being redundant.
