I am getting hung up trying to decide whether to put hours/week for some of my activities. For example, I've done a research project for the past 18 months. 2-3 months of which were full-time for credit (and on my MSPE) while at other times I was barely doing anything (data collection was passively occurring) and then when I've had data come in/posters to prepare, 15-20 hours per week. Is it worth trying to estimate this as 10 hours/week? Or will programs be able to see my publication list and infer the amount of work I've done?
In general, it feels like a slippery slope where once I start to list hours/week, it feels like I should add it for everything. Any guidance here/ what are other people doing?
