Extra-curricular activities question

Hi all,

I am applying for the A&O First scheme and one of the questions is about what extra-curricular you've done. I'm a bit stuck on how to structure this and also content wise, should I focus on law/academic achievements (such as insight afternoons, virtual internships, leadership positions at school) or also sport/gap year activities?

If anyone could help that would be amazing!

There’s no set structure. You have to do what works for you and your experiences.

All you have mentioned could be included.
