    Hey girl! This is super helpful and encouraging, I am thinking of applying this cycle but was told "rolling" admissions means that if you submit at the last minute you do not have as great of a chance to get in.

      I’m so happy to help!! So with rolling admissions it definitely is better to apply as early as you can but depending on the program it’s not the end of the world applying late! Some of my classmates applied to my program the day of the deadline and they obviously got in!☺️

    Love this video thank you for sharing! I just sent out my emails to those writing my LORs- I wish I could have done it in person :( did you use bullet points for your experiences or write small paragraphs?

    • @PASCourtney

      Thank you! It’s okay it’s weird times so it’s completely understandable. I wrote in small paragraphs for my experiences!

      How were you able to only use 600 characters? I’m having so much trouble 😂 i keep writing 800+

      I definitely had to cut and condense especially on the description of my phlebotomy job! I tried to list that out more like “I was responsible for x,y, and z.” I ended up still cutting out some of my less important tasks and rewording where I could to shorten it!

    Any chance you’d be willing to give me feedback on my personal statement if I sent it to you??

    Is it ok to include some courses in experiences? For example, I took a dissection course and was also a learning assistant for credit. Or is it something that shouldn’t be included since it’s already on the transcripts?

    • @PASCourtney

      Hi Adam! I personally would probably not list the course itself as an experience but label it as teaching experience in the experience section of CASPA! Then you could describe more about it in the description box. If you only left it as a course the programs you apply to may not notice it or understand what your responsibilities were as a learning assistant!

      PA-S Courtney great point, thank you!

    Did you apply to any rolling admissions schools and if so did any of those schools offer you an interview?

    • @PASCourtney
      @PASCourtney  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes! All 3 schools I applied to had rolling admissions and I was invited for an interview at all 3!
