Hey, planning to apply this cycle and I'm working through this blind. I don't know who to ask and the dentists I work with applied so long ago that they don't remember much.
A month after I turned 17 I've been working part time continuously with no break/jump between each job to financially support myself and pay for tuition out of pocket, which has very obviously affected my ability to remain 100% focused in school all the time. The only problem is that all my jobs (even my current one at a dental office) were off the books so I didn't report any income. I'm currently working on filling out my personal information for the application but there is a section asking if I had "paid employment prior to age 18". I'm not sure if I should put in yes or lie and say no because I technically (legally anyways) didn't have a job so I wouldn't have any proof outside of "yeah i did it plz take my word for it" even if they did ask.
What should I do?
