on the creighton secondary (as well as many others) it asks for anything else you would like the admissions committee to know...

i don't have any horrible quarters or break in education or anything, so should i include anything at all? should i just leave it blank? or should i say something personal about myself like "i am very dedicated and if given the chance i know i will succeed in your program"? i don't want to come off as begging or anything however... anyone have any tips?
 
What? Creighton has a secondary?! :wow: Maybe that explains why I didn't get accepted there.
Just kidding. Yeah, they asked me that in the interview, too. I guess the answer to your question is "do you have anything else that you think the adcoms should know?" Do you feel that you represented yourself well in your application? If so, I think you're good. I didn't put anything. If you put any "I'm a good person" kind of things I think it makes you look less than professional.
 
I have had some people to tell me to leave it blank, and I have had other people tell me to put something that will make you stand out. I chose to put something that would make me stand out on that one.
I put something about my hobbies being camping, hiking, and back packing. And that I have backpacked Africa, South America, Europe, and climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro. Just something to make me stand out.


But I only put that on my Creighton application. Other schools asked if I have special circumstances I wanted the committee to know about, and I left it blank. I only wrote about my hobbies for Creighton because they weren't specific about what kind of information they wanted. They just said, "Anything else you want us to know?"

(sorry for the long winded answer)
 
hmmm okay i think i'll just add a brief phrase, thanks for all the help!!
 
I just left it blank. Plus, with your 25 AA is it really gonna matter what you put there? 🙂

did they ask for secondary( got any email or mail) or you are going ahead and sending the secondary?
I am asking that because I got email from LLU and Nova and Organ asking for secondary. but I have not got anything from other schools like Case and Creighton. ( they have my old DAT from last year 19/20) I am rewiting my Dat the mid july.
 
It said to send in the secondary for Creighton when you submit your aadsas
