Listing and Describing activities - using incomplete sentences?

List and describe your activities, including jobs, during the past two summers: Please note, DO NOT use hard returns in your responses.

It allows for 300 characters maximum. Are incomplete sentences ok?

my teachers have always taught me that if a question says "list" complete sentences are not needed. but i suggest contacting the school just to be sure.

Since the prompt said "do not use hard returns in your responses" I think the admission officers want complete sentence. Also, it's always better to be on the safe side.

300 characters max is not a lot so instead of listing everything, I would focus on the jobs and activities that have influenced you the most. Provide a sentence or two on the nature of each activity and how it influenced you.

Good luck!

Thanks. I'm gunna call the school. Its Columbia if you were curious.

It's always great to call the school! It's great to make a good impression and have them remember your name. As for lists, I think there are also teachers who say that you SHOULD use complete sentences.

Know what? I think you should use complete sentences just to show off. Post your list here, and I'll help if I can. It is good to show mastery of the language...

I used complete sentences when I answered this question. It seemed impossible to lists everything with the character limit, so I focused on a few important ones.

I hope this helps.
