如何选择填写的活动？
首先，对申请者来说最重要、与申请的专业最相关、影响力最大、给招生人员印象最深刻的活动应该放在第一个，然后按照重要性依次列出剩余的课外活动——那些你最喜欢的、能充分体现你的能力和价值观的活动应该放在前面，而那些影响较小但仍然值得注意的活动应该放在最后。
因为招生官花在每一份申请上的时间不会太多，所以一上来就吸引住招生官的目光很重要，第一眼给人留下深刻的印象，他们才更有可能仔细地看下去。
除此以外，将能串联起来的活动集中在一起也是个好主意，这能让大学知道你最感兴趣的事情。你可以逐个列出与体育相关的课外活动，或者将各种 STEM 活动组合在一起，比如：
High school basketball team member
Youth basketball team coach
Organized local basketball tournament for kids with special needs
Interned with local professional basketball team’s analytics department
那么，该选择哪些活动呢?对于每一项你做过的活动，你可以根据以下几个问题，来判断它是否有被写进申请的价值词
1、该活动是否展示了你的兴趣和技能？
2、该活动是否展现出了你的领导力？
3、 该活动是否独特且有影响力？
4、该活动对你的意向大学有吸引力吗？
怎么填写活动列表？
确定了值得写的活动之后，就要动手开始描述这些活动啦!
填写角色和组织名称
需要填写的内容如下图：
从下拉菜单中选择活动类型后，应在相应的框中输入他们的角色和组织名称。例如，角色写“President”，然后组织写“Student Council”。
填写详情
因为有150个字符的上限，所以在描述详情时不要重复其他输入框里已经填写的内容，比如，不要写“As president of the student body, I was responsible for…”，而应直接写“Responsible for meeting agendas, liaising with administration, and implementing school initiatives, such as free textbooks for low-income families.”。
关注可量化且重大的影响
许多人没能有效表现出活动的价值，因为他们写自己的贡献不够具体，描述详情时最好加入直观的数字和结果。例如，不要笼统地写“Organized food can drive for local families”，而应该具体地写“Collected over 10.000 cans and provided Thanksgiving meals for 500 families in greater Cleveland”。
无需使用完整的句子
因为字数上限很少，所以不需要写完整的句子。与其写“At the hospital, I transported patients with physical disabilities on wheelchairs…”，不如写“Transported patients on wheelchairs, provided meals and blankets, assembled gift baskets, and attended grand rounds”。这样，在有限的字数内，你能加入更多实际的细节。
使用现在时描?述当前活动
如果你还在做一个活动的话，那么使用现在时进行描述。例如，“I tutored seventh graders in science”是描述已经结束了的活动，而“I help seventh graders master challenging science concepts”则描述仍在进行的活动。
