Hi,
So my question is should I put the fact that I played the violin in high school in the manual dexterity section of my application? I have not played the violin in over 2 years, so I am a bit rusty at it. At the same time I made a comparison between the hand skills required for playing the violin and dentistry in my personal statement. Should I explain that I used to but do not any more and talk about what I currently do to show my manual dexterity? Or should I not mention it at all and just talk about what I currently do now? My main fear is being asked to play the violin during one of my interviews because I have heard stories where applicants had to do so during their interviews. Thanks in advance!
