When you talk about essay, are you speaking of the personal statement? Is there a special format that most people use when they write their PS?
Yes, personal statement. You have 4500* characters(including spaces) to tell them why you want to go to med school.
* if it's the same this year
sure, get your personal statement together...

do we need a resume?
do we need a resume?
For some schools you do. I believe I remember including one for CCOM.
You need a CV for CCOM. In the sciences and medical fields you usually uses CV's, not resumes.
You won't submit your activities in a resume format. Instead, you fill out each activity separately. An up-to-date resume is useful, though, to keep your activities and accomplishments organized.
CCOM and AZCOM ask for resumes/CV's as part of their secondary application.
I thought the same thing, that literally must have been .001 seconds apart.you're too quick
As for your LOR's.
Then, ask for them again.
And again...and again, and again.
Well, you get the point...those silly things take FOREVER.
