Write only initial.Suppose if your middle name is JOSEPH write only 'J'.
And don't mix your first name and middle name in a single box.
Last name = surname
Middle name=father's name OR husband's name
First name=Our name.I know some consider it as a silly ANSWER!!!:laugh:

I'd say first letter of your middle name, or you can skip that field altogether as its not mandatory

hi everyone!!
can someone please clear this doubt- In the CAAPID application, in the ' letters of evaluation ' column, in the waivers section- do we have to mark the first option 'I waive my right to access' the attached letter of evaluation???
I have letters of evaluation from my professors sealed in envelopes and also signed across the seal. so, is that option in the application to be marked?? i hope im clear. please suggest whoever have already sent CAAPID or are doing it now. THankyou very much. Please hurry up...
 
i have one more doubt- what all documents are to be sent to CAAPID by mail? Im mentioning what all i know so far.
1)ece report
2)3 letters of recommendation

do we have to send our shadowing experience letters to CAAPID?? official transcripts???

please add if im missing any document to be sent to CAAPID after e-submitting the application.
thankyou very much.

They clearly mention that they will not accept anything else.
If your shadowing letter is one of your LORs then send it..or else, send the other stuff directly to schools.

According to the law, a student has the right to access his/her recommendation letter. So, its ur choice whether u want to waive that access or not. If you do not waive ur access to the letters you can always ask the university for a copy of the letter once submitted. But i have heard, it is always better to waive ur access to the recommendation letters....hope this helps...

you can submit the CAAPID application online. mail them ece and LOR's along with the matching forms provided in the aplication. no need to send toefl and nbde score. they have to be sent to schools directly.

no, u need not send anything other than ece and LOR's. If any of your experience letter is LOR, then send it. rest all have to be submitted to schools.
 
@Pbkal

I don't think we should write Dental camps as they are just a part of our Internship.All I have understood is mostly it depends on our scores I don't think adding this little things make a much difference.🙄
Though many will disagree with me😉

hey docapril!!
Include your dental camps experience in community service section. I did the same. Do mention that you conducted camps in your SOP.
