Did anyone decide how they are going to approach this question? In terms of word/character count?
for this mine was around 300 words, and I talked about the each of the experiences I did briefly and how they pertained towards answering the question. I didn't do a deep dive into any of them, just broad summaries for each of my experiences. not sure if this was the way but oh well
 
anyone portal not loading
mine is up. for the activities section are you just re listing your amcas primary there? and for intermittent/noncontinuous would you consider 9 month working at school then 3 month off summer break as intermittent/non continuous?

I am still waiting - was verified and processed on 6/11, so potentially next week?
 
Would it be a bad idea to try and call them? Their website makes it seem like they mistakenly don't send out emails sometimes.

for the activities section, I listed my clinical jobs under "clinical" and I'm skipping over the "employment" section (although they were paid clinical experiences)... is this what everyone else is doing? I'm trying to not just fill space for the sake of it
 
Random question y'all, but for the following question: "2.0: What personal accomplishment are you most proud of and why? (1500 Characters)" would it be recommended to go with a lifetime accomplishment, or something more recent?

The lifetime accomplishment is not related to medicine but is something I am genuinely proud of, while the more recent one is a corporate/finance related accomplishment but ties to healthcare.

FYI: there is a portion that asks "Have demonstrated the potential to work with under-resourced communities." and if you answer yes, a text box pops up saying "please describe." There doesn't seem to be a character count for this one
 
I am not sure if it is burn out, but something about this secondary just does not feel easy? I have no clue.
