Hello,
I was wondering if I could get some advice...........perhaps I am just freaking out about the application and worrying too much, but when I enter in my professional experience do you think it is best to list a narrative description or write bullet points similar to a resume? I'm hoping my professional experience will be seen as a positive, I am not sure of the best way to represent it. Thanks so much!

I talked about my work experience in a narrative form in my personal statement. For the "work experience" section, I left it bullet pointed.

Honestly, I think you should just do it whichever you feel will best represent you. I don't think it will matter.

I entered it like luxian as well.

I used bullet points for the work/activies section and left the narrative for the personal statement.

Yep. When I was originally filling out my AMCAS I went into lots of detail (hey, they give you all that space), but I came across a thread here with an ADCOM member's take. Basically, when you're reading thousands of these you don't really want a thorough explanation for everything. If it's important enough, it belongs in the PS or secondary responses.
