Probably a stupid question

I know this is probably a dumb question, but I'm kind of anal about this stuff. In the PS, how did you designate paragraphs? By just leaving an empty line in between paragraphs? Or indenting each paragraph with no empty line in between?

Examples:

blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blahb blah blah blah blah blah

blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blahb blah blah blah blah blah

OR

(indent)blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blahb blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
(indent)blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blahb blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah

I think it would depend on how many characters you use. If you can get away with it, indent is my vote.

I think last year, to indent you had to actually enter in the 5 spaces, you couldn't hit tab. So I ended up putting a line between each paragaph (your first example).

Sometimes using spaces to indent doesn't work and your paragraphs are jumbled together. Using an extra line always works for the AMCAS or secondaries.

I've always broke a whole line (choic A). I just like that format more...and felt I didn't need every character to make a good PS.

Use the line. That counts as two spaces, whereas indenting is five... plus, there are formatting issues at times with indenting in form-fields. I didn't indent, so I don't know if AMCAS is this way... plus I feel that skipping lines looks more clean and formal.
