Not sure if this is a thing on these forums, but is anyone interested in swapping personal statements for feedback? I'm looking for general feedback plus a quick check for typos and am happy to do the same for someone else.

Thank you! Semi-related: I'm working on apps and some schools have a separate, optional section for just "Activities." It seems like this is where someone just out of undergrad would probably elaborate on their extracurriculars--do you think it's worth writing a short bit about my book club or just skipping it?
Hello -
I've been out of college for five years and I'm struggling to decide what to include in my resume. I'm planning on having sections for 1) my work experience (won't be super long because I've only held two different jobs since graduating) 2) my education and 3) some during college and post college activities.
Mostly what I'm struggling with is that because I've had full time jobs, some long communtes, etc. I haven't had the time to be involved like I was in college. In college I was VP of very large service fraternity, president of another club, etc. The only post-college activity I can think of that may be of interest is starting a book club.
Thoughts on how much (if any) of my college activities to keep? They do strongly correlate to the kind of law I want to do (public interest).
Feel free to DM on here. Someone else I'm swapping with suggested using a Google Drive link to share our documents, which sounds good to me!
