I looked for some older threads but couldn't find any recent threads related to this issue:

Does anyone have recommendations on how to combine multiple presentations into a single entry in the work/activities section? Is this even advised? I have given 3 oral presentations and want to show that without 1/5 of my extracurriculars being presentations.

List the activity and then describe any oral/poster presentations and other accomplishments related to the activity in the description area.

I'd list them all under one entry called "Presentations" or something. This is what I did for my research posters, which was explicitly advised. In my case, they were all out of the same lab so it was straightforward as to how to fill in most of the fields, and for the time I just gave the range, from the oldest to most recent one. If there's any unifying factor, or if one presentation was more important than the others, you could use its info where necessary to populate some of the fields, and otherwise try to be as clear as possible that this is for multiple presentations over a span of time.

EDIT: Or, yeah, what JackaltheHyde said is even better if you can do that.

They were all over similar topics (my research).

My main concern is with the "Date of Presentation" box: Should I just enter the most recent one and then list others in the description?

Thanks all for the help!
 
Related question: Is it unnecessarily redundant to list my lab experience as an EC when I have previously described it in detail in my research essay and listed publications as EC's?
