Abstract in W/A but Research Lab Isn't?

[applicant349]

So I did some short work with a lab over this past year (only about 30 hours total) and the mentor I was working with ended up writing an abstract and credited me as an author that they are planning to submit. I won't know whether it's been accepted or not by the time the primary is due, but I feel like putting it on there along with some of my other posters/pub can't hurt even if it's only "in submission." The main issue I'm thinking about is the fact that I don't have room to put the actual lab as an activity. Might just be me being neurotic, but would ad-coms see an issue with putting this abstract on but not the lab? Thanks in advance!

For what it's worth to help you, I don't consider activities with fewer than 50 hours that important (other than shadowing). From what you describe, I don't feel it moves my needle.
