Personal Statement Indentations on AADSAS
Started by averageasian
This happened to me as well. I just manually indented each paragraph using the spacebar and hitting it consistently 9 times each so the start of each paragraph would line up lol. But I noticed my first paragraph would never keep the indent after I saved so I just left that part the way it was.
same! my first parapagh also wouldn't indent for some reason after saving. What i did was forget the indents and add a line b/t each paragraph
If I remember my readings from stalking the previous years, this is what most of them did. Skip the indents, add breaks between.
if you havent submitted yet what worked for me was entering a line before the first paragraph
What does everyone mean exactly by entering a line. I already submitted so too late for me but am curious.
Like literally pressing enter, so there is a space between paragraphs. If you skip the first line, the first paragraph indentation doesn't shift over.
Ohh I see. I had actually thought of doing that too lol. Oh well ..
I'm sure it's fine. If you look at the PDF version of your submission it doesn't even show indentations...and I'm pretty sure thats what schools actually see
