Hi, all.
I have just finished adding all of my experiences into VMCAS. I don't think I am lacking in any particular experience area. However, I am debating on adding any "hobbies" or pet ownership. Should I?
I don't want it to look like I'm fishing for hours. I just don't have another place in the application to talk about "me" totally exclusive of vet med. For example, I want to talk about my love for cooking and how I am working on my own cookbook. But, how would I even tally the hours up for culinary arts (I cook every day!)? Is this silly to even include?
Other hobbies I have include creative writing, horseback riding, and interior decorating
I am in a similar situation because I grew up in a suburban neighborhood but my family's farm was a quick drive down the street and they had horses/cows/chickens etc. and I have not listed that anywhere. There is probably 1,000 hours of animal experience/ownership that I want to list but seems silly/fishing?
What should I do?
