Where did you apply previously? Any interviews or waitlist ?
No II at all, I didn't get a clinical job till end of august, so was really only in my update letters. only my 70 clinical volunteer hours (def did me a lot of harm). I think my PS was bad as well. I like my entire primary much more this time around, found one run on sentence I thought I fixed, but oh well. Last year I had like two typos I think (didn't capitalize something and there was something else)

thank you!
 
Do whatever you can to increase your service orientation activity hours: food distribution, shelter volunteer, job/tax preparation, legal support, transportation services, or housing rehabilitation. Ideally you should have 150 hours when you submitted your application. We will see how things go.

I submitted with 160 or 170 (can't remember) nonclinical volunteer hours! I was thinking of looking for more again in special education (did those other hours while at school and graduated in 2024 so I tired to find some more last fall back home and didn't get an answer back from any companies/groups). Should I get more clinical volunteering?? or no?
