Hey guys,

For entering 700 characters about a poster presentation into the Work and Activities sections. What should i mainly put in there?

-the techniques used?
-the title of the project?
-the hypothesis?
-the conclusion?
-the PI?

because there isnt enough space. and it was the most "meaningful" experience.

Just talking about the purpose of the project puts me near 650 charecters.

I would personally put title, dates, pi and purpose. Adcoms will ask if they want more info during interviews.

I would personally put title, dates, pi and purpose. Adcoms will ask if they want more info during interviews.

I basically wrote it as a reference in a bibliography at the beginning, and then followed this with a brief description of what the project was about.

Ex. Author, Author (I assume one is the PI). Title. Poster presented at X conference, University Affiliation, State, date presented.

At one of my interviews the interviewer found the referenced poster on my PI's site, printed it off, and had me explain it to him- so make sure if it is a really old poster (like mine was) that you remember what it was for/where it was presented/ect. It was nice to know that they looked at my application in depth!

Also one last question,

If i were to enter in honor societies, and invitation to honor societies, and Deans lists, Can i place them all under one category like ("University Honors")?
