I'm currently submitting my batch of secondaries and one of the questions asked is "what is your most significant achievement outside the classroom?"
I feel like bragging about my research project I'm doing now but I feel like I already did enough of that in my AMCAS essay, so I decided to say that my most significant achievement was building my own computer, since people used to crack jokes about how I didn't know anything about computers and I was able to learn from that, do research about the hardware, and built my own desktop computer which I am using now.
I think this sounds lame but I honestly don't want to repeat the same things over and over and over again that are already on the AMCAS essay.
Would you say this will work? Is it too simple of an achievement?
