Hello all

I'm a bit confused about the St. George's work/activities section. There's a section that says "Type all the activities that you've been involved in" and gives three boxes to fill it out. Are they looking for general themes or specific activities?

Under the second section "please list your volunteer/service experiences..." are they looking for descriptions of the activities or just the name, date, and hours? There's no other place on the application to describe my activities.

I've attached a screen shot. Any thoughts are welcome.

Names and dates, mostly. I think I added a 3-5 word description for non-obvious ones. If you say "Shadowing - EM physician" or "Volunteer BP clinic" or "Boy Scouts of America" or whatever, they're going to have a pretty good idea of the sort of stuff you did.

Just type some stuff in the boxes, nobody is going to seriously read that with any sort of scrutiny. They have thousands of applications to sift through each year. Just don't make stuff up.

I did the same exact thing. Wrote 3-5 word descriptions for the ambiguous ones, and just wrote whatever I've done that was obvious.

-Take bedeviled ben's advice.
