[QUOTE="Jessica Booker, post: 13827, member: 2672"] Can definitely go back further than 12-18 months. Have seen people use examples of a life time commitment to ECs and therefore have explained they got started from the age of 5!! It is all about what is relevant to you. Don’t include things that have been super-seeded by better or more modern examples, or at least don’t go into detail about them. Don’t just list things out if there is little accomplishment or achievement to them. I’d be far more interested in hearing someone was a county champion runner at the age of 15 than part of a running club at university. I graduated 15 years ago and I still reference some of the challenging extra curricular activities I did in 2003 (volunteered with child asylum seekers) because they really tested my character and ultimately shaped some of my motivations.
