FAA Application -- kinds of time

I am filling out my FAA Application for my instrument
checkride and had a couple of questions:
1) I am going for a private/single engine/instrument,
do I check all three blocks at the top? Or just the
instrument? Or just the SE and instrument?
On mine, I checked SE and instrument.
2) What is the difference between:
Solo & PIC
Cross Country Solo : Cross country PIC
Night takeoff/landing : Night takeoff/landing PIC
"Solo" is solo: no one else in the plane. "PIC" is time loggable as PIC
according to the regs (it includes all solo time, and some non-solo time).
The for night takeoff/landing. Is that supposed to
be time spent in the pattern at night? Does it include
night X-C time if I was the one to land the plane?
It includes all pilot time at night (as defined in the regs: between evening
civil twilight and morning civil twilight).
Does all of the time I have received dual at night
count for Night Instruction received even if I was
doing it under the hood and the instruction wasn't
necessarily "night" related? And for that matter,
does all the time that I had XC with my instructor
count as "Cross country instruction received?"
Yes and yes.
What I guess is that "solo" time means when you are
not receiving dual.
Nope, "solo" means no one else in the plane.
