Figured since TMDSAS has one, might as well start one for AADSAS! Application opens up tomorrow around noon-ish! Post all your questions here. 😀

woot woot 2011 cycle!

for the schools that want their fees as the same time as the AADSAS app should we send it in after the whole thing has been processed or after we have submitted it?

I was talking to some schools about this, and apparently it makes no difference (at least to the schools I talked to).

As long as they get their money before or after everything is received, they'll be satisfied. 🙄

YAY for 2011 AADSAS!!!

Is noonish an accurate time?

I need to plan out my day tomorrow, would be helpful if this was confirmed.

Thank you

There was a thread about this question posted earlier this week.

The answer was that AADSAS was uncertain as to what time they will open on June 3rd, 2010.

If the trends follow last years, there may be hour long delays and server overloads.

I have a small question about our letters of recommendation. I thought you had to send at least 3 to provide in your AADSAS application and then if you need more, you have to send them individually to schools. My advisor just told me that "I don't need to worry about them until secondary applications." Can someone help clear this up for me?

You can do it either way, I suppose. As long as the schools get the required letters of evaluation, you will be alright.

It seems more efficient to just include the majority of your letters in your AADSAS application, and then send other additional letters to the school.

Anyone got a rough estimate of how much it costs to apply? price per school?

Does anybody know any resources that can review our personal statements for punctuations and things of that sort????

Friends, family, co-workers that are serious about helping you.

Your University or learning institutions may have writing services, best to check their websites or call their directory operators.

Questions!!


If your LORS are being sent by a school health committee, how does this work?
What do we put in the application?

Also
If I print out the transcript matching forms, and order my transcripts - can I e-submit my application?
Or do I have to wait until AADSAS receives the transcript to submit?

 

[Baylor2011]

WHAT THE?! WHAT THE/13%%!

OH MY GOSH GUYS

IT'S JUNE 3RD, AND THAT APPLICATION ISN'T UP!!! WHAT WILL EVER DO?!?!





You know people are going to be like that come noon today and it's still not up.

 

[lcataralc]

oh my gosh! it isn't up yet! haha

 

[ItalianPrincess]

noon on the east coast, no app yet

 

[kalyv]

its up🙂

 

[Avery07]

Ahh finally open.. what a beautiful sight.

Good luck everyone.

For entering coursework, they are very specific about entering course titles EXACTLY as they appear on your transcript. However, some of my course titles are VERY long and the box cuts me off. Has anyone else run into this problem and how are you abbreviating?

Sorry if this is a really nitpicky question...I'm a little too detail oriented for my own good🙂

 

[flyguy25]

Whelp it crashed for me, hopefully I didn't lose what I was working on when I hit save

 

[Baylor2011]

BOOOOOOM

all your base are belong to us 😱

 

[Rlow04]

Time to go get lunch and try again in a couple of hours...

 

[Baylor2011]

Go study 🙂 DAT in 8 days!

 

[AnInconvntTooth]

Hey, could you guys log out of AADSAS for maybe an hour? I need to do my application. Can you tell your friends, too?

Yeah...I just need people to log out for just 10 minutes! I just want my matching forms!

 

[Rlow04]

Baylor2011 - You're right. If all of us with June DAT dates stopped mindlessly hitting refresh for hours and went and studied, it might clear up the server for everyone else.

hahahaha, I wish mine was that close...

Halleluja!

I'm 1/30th the way done with my AADSAS application.

Despite several annoying crashes and countless time-out sessions, I feel like I'm making extremely fast progress!

Now on to the fun part... inputing all my grades.

 

[dynococus]

did anyone see the manual dexterity section anywhere?

 

[lanie29]

for the professional experience section are we expected to write in complete sentences?? there is no way there would be enough room

 

[sarora11]

So I just tried starting the app and theres no log in or create new login space or anything is this due to the overload/crashing that seems to be going on?

edit: nvm its back up

AADSAS is horribly fritzy from all the traffic today! 🙁

I searched the forum and found a thread about a similar question dealing with ECs: http://forums.studentdoctor.net/showthread.php?t=729783&highlight=complete+sentences

People were pretty much saying they listed them rather than wrote in complete sentences, so I'm thinking that might apply to this situation as well...? Anyone who has applied before care to share any insight?

 

[HASassin]

its not working for me,
i dont see where i log in ?

 

[Baylor2011]

Make sure you have popup blockers turned off...popular one on firefox is "adblock plus" ...they all need to be turned off, then you'll see it

 

[ItalianPrincess]

are we supposed to write a short essay for the manual dexerity under "Background Information" cuz it gives 600 characters which is way more than anything else

i was just planning on listing and quickly describing but that doesn't seem like enough in the space

 

[suhshi]

submitted on June 3rd! goodluck to all those applying.. now to get ready for supplemental apps....
