Downstate's Secondary - Why is the font so small ?

Is anyone else having trouble with Downstate's PDF form of the secondary? Last year's was pretty normal sized, but the 2004 is really shrunk up and looks weird on the page. I have been able to open the PDF and actually type into it but it still is really strange looking on the page.

I'm still too new at this to call them and ask - but does this form look weird to anyone else? Am I not doing someting I should? Their font is size 7 !

I KNOW, RIGHT?

It took me last night like 40 minutes to fill in all the info on the WHOLE 1 1/4 pages they needed. By the end I wished I would have handwritten. It seems to me that this thing was not REALLY meant to be edited with Adobe, but there always is a way. Anyway, I doubt they will care, since their own instructions are in microscopic font.

UUUUUUUGGGHHHHH

Guys, don't waste your time typing up secondaries. Trust me, it's not gong to affect your chances of getting in. I didn't 🙂
Good luck to all of you!

Hey Fastidious you got in with a handwritten secondary?? I was going nuts here trying to make it look all 'right' and I mean, WTF? This has got to be such a crazy looking form - what were they thinking.

And what about a picture??? 😕

This little guppie is going in the mail toute suite, and that's that !

um... picture??

Are secondaries supposed to be typed... or can they all be handwriteen...do schools care?

 

[Fastidious]

Paws, what picture?

 

[Paws]

Ok, c'mon guys don't pick on me. This is my first time applying so I don't always know what the heck is going on. I guess there is no picture for this secondary. I am so used to sending them I guess I thought this one got one too.

Do you think they will accept you just because you're good looking?
OK, I am just teasing you. Good luck!
