[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sara H in AN says never to fill out Additional Info with that kind of information. Sounds like she may not have the most up to date info, if these other former AOs say every kid from TJ has a stacked AI section in the common app. She also says not to ever include sports awards (even if individual) in the awards section.[/quote] I think the use of "other info" for TJ students was very specific to knowing that TJ students do a required research project. The research project was not mentioned anywhere in the app and should have been in other info. It's a big omission for reps familiar with TJ. One of my kids didn't use that section. The other used it to further explain an EC that was uncommon and could not be conveyed in the limited activity list space. And, she listed the topics of her science fair projects throughout HS (all related to her planned major).[/quote]
