For HL DTC, one question is providing details of any open days and events you’ve attended. Do I just list them or give further details? Anyone who’s applied for HL DTC please help, thanks!
I treated it as an opportunity to respond to a written question, so I wrote in paragraphs. However, I've had no guidance on this from them directly, so it's just what I chose to do.

I attended an event last year and I’d say this is the right approach, they suggested picking 3 or 4 and going into detail about what you learnt/gained
