Possibly unusual question for an AdCom.

[ScrubsAndHoodies]

Hi all

When an admissions committee is looking at our "Work/Activities" section, do they see roughly the same thing that we see logged into AMCAS?

Specifically: when I click on "Show Details" in Work/Activities, the formatting becomes rather wonky, and extra spaces are added between commas, at other random places, etc. as opposed to the nice way I typed everything out.

Is that how you all see it? It looks terrible/hurts my eyes. If so, I couldn't imagine trying to look at multiple of these at a time. I'm not really worried about it, but I am genuinely curious.

Go to main menu-->print application (on the right hand side)--> choose print pdf application. That's how they will see it I believe.

Can any adcom corroborate this? It would really help to know.

This is accurate. Some programs will actually include hard copy of your application in your interview day folder.

Did you type it up in word processing software? AAMCAS only does raw, text-only lettering; if you draft it up in some other program, it can mess up the formatting.

I agree. It's best to re-type it into the AMCAS section, or write it using a software that contains no formatting like Notepad.

Seconded. A lot of email servers provide text only modes as well.
