I made 2 mistakes the my UC apps....

1. Didn't completely answer question in first prompt
2. Listed all community service clubs under activities rather than community service......consequently,I didn't put down everything I was involved in...*sighs*

Anyone make any mistakes which they regret? =/

don't worry about it.
the community service part they'll probably understand.
and besides.. its okay if you only left out the smaller, less important activities you were in. cause the big ones are more important

idk what to say about the essay though. hopefully the reader will think you answered the prompt well.
best of luck w/ UCs (:

I messed up on so many of my apps.

-I excluded two classes on the part where they ask you what classes you're currently taking
-Put in my unweighted GPA instead of weighted because my guidance counselor said to do so
-I was too lazy to submit something by mail, so I attached it to this one part on the common app where it says other. Well needless to say, I didn't know that once you submit something on the common app, it's a done deal. So all the schools that use the form see this resume of my list of activities in which I went in-depth.

But, maybe you can try calling the admissions office to fix your app or e-mail them.
