This honestly may be a call to their admissions office.
Just the minimum to fulfill the requirements. Their adcom has access to your full transcripts so they know (and expect) that you have taken more than the required courses. AP is fine unless stated otherwise.
"Emory will accept some Advanced Placement (AP) and International Baccalaureate (IB) credit, as long as the credits appear on a college transcript. If you have AP and/or IB credit in any of the science areas, it is recommended that you complete an upper level course to maintain your knowledge in that area."
Just list the courses
I would say no, I asked my advisor the same thing, and they said your experiences have shaped who you are, lean into that!
As long as you have different stories/perspectives for each question, I don't think it matters if they come from the same experience
I mean it depends if you're willing to spend the $100. It's a competitive school, so that's the (literal) cost. If you have some research background, I'd play it up in one of the secondaries a bit. They tend to like their own undergrads a bit too, so
By "any" do they mean list and describe each activity? Or go into depth about one specific activity with under-served communities?
Just a word of advice, Emory does not care about the "under-served" aspect like Mercer does. You can def include it, but it will not nearly carry the weight that it does at other schools.
Do you have a source? They changed their prompt this year to offer an opportunity to further explain service to underserved communities.
should we leave this question blank if we are taking a gap year and already answered what we are doing in question 1 when not in school? I am confused what would go here...like could i make into a diversity essay of something that i didn't write about in my primary? or would new info only consist of like new activities or something
i used it to expand on an experience that i got more hours in since submitting my primary app, but i have heard of others using it more as an additional info space for whatever they wanted
If you are trying to force something here, it likely is best to leave it blank.
Hello! for multiple experiences and space restrictions, should we be listing this or going narrative form?
Please see wysdoc’s post (#66 of this thread, right above your earlier question).

It’s in my signature (pro tip, turn your phone sideways to see them. I didn’t know this until this month).
Yes. Good vibes. Short 1-on-1. So nerve racking waiting for your interview during the opening introductions and presentation. You will meet a lot of current med students and learn a lot.
I thought there was a group interview too. Is that cut this year?
They said the only thing they mail is acceptances. Everything else is email.
The day consists of an opening/introductions, info session, then a sequence of 1-on-1 interview, group interview, and chatting with med students (order is different for everyone). About 20 students per day.
They mail acceptances at the end of each month. An interview information packet is available on the portal if you get invited to interview.
