If your commitment to an activity on the Common App fluctuates, calculate the average hours per week or month you spent on it and specify this average. Mention in the description that your involvement varied, providing reasons if necessary. Use the "Weeks per Year" field to indicate the seasonal or monthly variations in your commitment. Be honest, and consistent. Emphasize the impact of your contributions in your descriptions. Hope this helps!
