Thank you for all your wise comments.

The post must be causing some confusion. OBVIOUSLY, references will be provided IF information comes from another source. My real question is, should the use of such information be avoided, since secondaries are not meant to be research papers? AND, if so, which format for citations do adcoms prefer?

If anyone would like to be helpful, I'd appreciate it. Thanks again.

About half: Ask for any convictions other than minor traffic violation. Yes this includes infractions, misdemeanors, and felonies.

Vermont: All tickets including traffic tickets other than parking tickets. They even want all of the POLICE REPORTS!!!

Hope this help. If you need to know about specific schools, just ask I have around 25 secondaries already!!

The deepest circle of hell is reserved for traitors, mutineers, and plagerizers. Only citations will save you.
 
EDIT:
let me clarify...i mean citations, as in references...the type that one would use when writing a research paper.
sorry for any confusion.

And which format would be most acceptable?

RARRRRRRRRR You think you're so smart don't you? If you're taking things out of books you better cite.
