Lol, my PS is one block of text, just realized you should hit enter twice

my personal statement was written with about 5 paragraphs in it, but I didn't consider that you could put two lines between paragraphs and so my whole thing is one chunk of text

it reads okay and any literate person should be able to understand it, but I think it read slightly better with the paragraphs indented.

any major problem with this?
 
Nothing to be done now, so just gotta hope it works for the readers. This probably happens to a lot of people

Its fine. Medical schools get 1000s of applications, you're not the only one that did this, and this is nowhere near a nail in the coffin for you. Chances are, medical schools will blame AMCAS with a formatting error and not you. Don't lose sleep over this.
 
Happened to me too, and I've seen many other people post about this on SDN before. I'm sure we'll all be okay.
 
Just realized I did this. However, I somehow made sure my most meaningful paragraphs were separated -_-
 
Shouldn't you be able to see the paragraph breaks if you check your app's pdf file? And isn't this what adcoms will see?
