[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Example: instead of reading books put "Organized a community book club focusing on 20th-century American literature, which improved my analytical skills and fostered a local network of literary enthusiasts." [/quote] That's not a hobby. That's a club. Clubs are fine too, but they don't matter more than hobbies. A hobby would be reading. I read a few hours every day in high school. If the common app had been a thing, I would have listed it as reading, maybe including some kind of statistic about how many books I read or something like that. I probably wouldn't have mentioned the amount of it that was done holding the book under my desk in math class. [/quote] That's literally the excerpted example used in the CV link - think it's more a guide on how to formalize a hobby? Unclear.[/quote]
