I just want to clarify what goes into the personal history section of an ITA.
I understand that either for the last ten years of my life or since the age of 18 I need to account for what I have been doing. But, what if I have been doing multiple activities simultaneously? For instance, for the majority of my university days, I have been working multiple jobs and involved in various organizations. Should I have 1 row per activity then, such as:
Based on the directions it sounds like they want all the organizations I have belonged to. I suspect I would need to enter overlapping activities.
But, I have also found posts telling individuals that they should just enter what they were mainly focusing on for those years as the activity. So instead of adding the student organizations I was a part of, I would just leave my history of 2008/09 - 2012/05 as 'Studying.'
I'm hoping someone can help clear things up for me and others who are having this question. I appreciate your help.
