On the personal essay section, I typed my essay in notepad like it suggessted, but every time I paste it into the text box on pharmcas, it ignores the indent in the first paragraph. I keep putting it back in and saving it, but then it is gone again when I go back and look. Has anyone else had this problem? Or does anyone know how to fix it? Thanks!
 
I typed mine right into the box. Hit enter 2 times after each paragraph. They understand the format is hard to deal with, but it shows up normal for them. No worries
 
If you really want to indent the first paragraph, copy and paste an indentation from another paragrah and paste it before your first sentence. And viola!
