Hi all

DO you guys think its a good idea to send a resume along with my app fee to each school that I'm applying too. They do not ask for a resume so would it annoy them that I am sending one?


thanks

I was wondering the same thing last year, but then I realized how much of a waste it would be. Everything you have on your resume should find a way into your AADSAS application. I know mine did. If you send it in, even though it is in your file, theres a chance the Ad-com wont even look at it. the thing is they are swamped with a ton of paper. In fairness to them try not to be redundant. That was one of the things a lot of my interviewers said was a good thing about my application. At several "name" schools, the person on the other end of the table said they were impressed by my directness in the application and the fact I addressed everything in a brief but concrete manner.
So in essence more isn't always good. Find a way to put the info in the AADSAS app, if you can't mention some of those things in your PS.

Good advice. Sending a resume would be a complete waste of time, in the regard that the application covers everything pertinent to your admission.
