Hi everyone,
I'm wondering what the difference between Academic Record and Education Interruption on PTCAS?
Academic record question: Does your academic record accurately reflect your capabilities? If no, describe why it does not. Present any information that may assist the admissions committee in interpreting and evaluating your academic history or credentials.
Education Interruption question: Has your education ever been interrupted or affected adversely for reasons other than deficiencies in conduct or academic performance? If yes, please provide an explanation below.
In my experience, I had 2 semesters where I did poorly due to life events in the background and would like to explain this. One of those semesters, I was forced to withdraw from most of my courses and the other one was while I studied abroad I received poor grades due a close person in my life back home receiving a cancer diagnoses and not having my support system with me abroad.
I'm just confused about the difference between these questions and under what question I should write this information?
Thank you!
