Resolved thank you!

That does not come across as cocky. You interpreted the question literally, which is fine.

Hi all,

So I put on a T20 secondary that asked me to list all virtual courses I’ve taken: “All courses Fall 2020 onward were taken virtually because of pandemic restrictions”

I not realize that might be interpreted as me not knowing how to follow directions or being cocky for not actually listing all the courses. Is this a significant issue or am I overthinking?

Thanks.

One of the secondaries I completed asked me to talk about academic road bumps. I replied by saying that my academic road bumps were listed in a specific section of my primary application, and that I did not want to insult the adcokme committee by being repetitive. This was the first school to send me an interview invitation.

Sometimes it's tough not to be overly cautious about every step of this process, so I truly understand your concern. While my example is just an anecdote, I would say cut yourself some slack and try not to worry about it. What's done is done, and you answered the question in a way that might make it easier on someone reviewing the app.

In some ways, this is a mercy to the committee as they don't need to compare your list to your transcript. Well done!

Exactly what I was thinking!
