While filling personal history i got confused.

FROM : May 2011 TO Present -------------> I'm engaged in a full time job (continuous)
FROM : June 2012 TO Dec 2014 -------------> I was doing master's in mechanical engineering in evening program in parallel with full-time job.

So should i mentioned both parallel activities in personal history ? or leave Master's activity and fill it only in "educational history" section?

Any help will be highly appreciated.

It is quite OK to have different activities that overlap in time. You just cannot leave any gaps : )

I also have the same scenario.

I mentioned both activities (full time work and part time studies) in 2 different line items. I wanted CIC to have the full picture.

I had a similar 'problem' myself.
I mentioned all my activities, even the overlapping ones, in separate lines.

I had 3 activities going on simultaneously. Mentioned 2 of them in Personal History and the 3rd one in LoE.
