• School registration method

  • I’m not quite sure about this.
    • GKA is divided into “Elementary Division” and “Middle/High School Division,” is that correct?
    • But are middle and high school separate?
  • I have no idea~~~
  • Actually, anything should be fine, I guess.
    • The important thing is that it is consistent.
  • Then,
    • Let’s register “Elementary Division,” “Middle/High School Division,” and “High School Division” separately.
      • It would be easier if it’s the same as the default in Japan.
    • Elementary Division: 2010/4-2016/3
    • Middle/High School Division: 2016/4-2019/3
    • High School Division: 2019/4-2022/3

• School characteristics

  • “Exam-based”?
    • I thought it was about IB for a moment.
    • However, since IB is not included in the list of exams to be registered for Exam-based, it seems to be different.
  • “block scheduling”
    • No, it’s different.

• Honors

  • 64 characters

• Activities Summary of resources useful for applying to universities in the United States

  • Activity/Experience Name: You have 64 characters to write out the name of your club or activity.
  • Description: Although the instructions state “please provide a one-sentence description of your experience,” you actually have 255 characters to list interesting details and/or unique insights into why each activity was particularly meaningful for you.
  • Individual Distinctions: If you need additional room, you can use this space (also up to 255 characters) to share special titles, awards, or honors you received within that club/organization. It’s okay to leave this section blank, too, as the final PDF of the application will simply skip to the next club if no text is entered.

• It seems good to use the honors section for those that can be described in 64 characters and use the activities section for larger awards as extracurricular activities.
