Hi guys, I am looking for some application advice. I've been working on the web based aacomas application all day and am frustrated by the 200 word limit I have in the personal statement section. I am considering doing the paper application for more space.
1) If the personal statement isn't too important to the DO schools, or not as important as it seems to MD schools, it won't matter too much that I can't write a lot. Is it as important?
2) If is is important and I need to figure out how to write VERY concisely, or do the paper application - is it bad to print neatly in the paper application, but type the essay? Do schools prefer to see typed applications vs. neatly printed ones? Typing in the little spaces they give you would take me forever.
Any experiences would be appreciated. Thanks!
