The closest thing I could find in the "activity" selection were related to computer tech, math, and science, which were too similar to other activities I participated in without category. 4-5 "math/science/technology" entries would have been highly confusing, and there was never enough space to elaborate on the activity and include leadership roles. I really think the Common App would be more credible if they let applicants write in the names of their activities (seems simple, right?). I'd probably take universities that swear by the Common App more seriously in that case.
