In the common app, they give you about... 3 lines for academic honors... and such little space for extracurricular info, and work exp..... TOO LITTLE SPACE.

Do most people attach a separate sheet, or just completely ignore the common app and send in their own little resume/activity sheet? Please tell me

I filled out the common app and for the spaces that were just too short, i just wrote "see attached sheet" or "see separate paper" or something like that. I wouldnt start on the lines and then finish on another paper, it's too messy. Most competitive colleges will expect that you need more room. But you cant just not send in the application, common or the school's own. you can add as much additional (but relevant) info as you want.
