Hi!
AADSAS has a new question in the personal section of the application regarding how COVID-19 has affected us. The way they phrased the question seems to be asking how it has "impacted your preparation for the application to dental school to up this point". Am I interpreting this question wrong ( that we can only talk about how its affected us only regarding the application process), or can we write just in general, such as personal matters like getting an opportunity to spend more time with family, etc.?
Thank you!

I am keeping my ADEA PASS one professional. Id imagine the residencies don't want to read a second personal statement

They mean how it has negatively impacted your application. This is an opportunity for people to explain things such as their lack of shadowing hours due to all offices being closed or the P/F grades in their transcripts.
