But here are some things I listed on my application
Activities-Leadership, Drama, Culinary Arts, and Mentorship.
Interests-Music, Reading, Learning more about Animal and body Science., Experiencing cultures varying from mine. Cooking and making people smile. Analyzing movies.
Honors and Awards-Student of the day twice, Cardinal caught caring, Junior Achievement, Honors in Human Anatomy and Multicultural Literature and Service Superstar.
Community Service and Volunteer Activities-N/A
I put N/A because I wasn’t sure if I should out down activates to do with church. But this is what I can put down Diamonds in the rough- Church group volunteered at nursing home. Luckily I can change the info so should I put that? Is there anything I should change? There is always room for improvementJ

I would definitely elaborate on some of your activities and honors and awards. Also, if you explained your mentorship a little more, that would DEFINITELY be considered volunteer/community service. You do have a good variety, but just explain a little more what those activities were. ie. Drama. were you a member of the drama club? did you have any roles or work on the stage crew? Even just simple details can help make the application really stand out.
