    Regarding a prompt like prompt #2 that does not apply in my case, am I supposed to leave it blank? I’ve heard the case where optional essays aren’t really “optional” and you should try to fill them in.

    • @Shemmassian
      @Shemmassian 14 дней назад

      Hello! The prompt reads: (Optional) If you interrupted your college education for a semester or longer, please describe what you did during that time. (2000 characters) Given the conditional language, you are correct in that you can leave this one blank. "Optional not really being optional" depends on the specific prompt. In this case, if you have not experienced an interruption of one or more semesters, the prompt doesn't apply to you.

    • @Shemmassian
      @Shemmassian 21 день назад

      While we're not sure about the question you're thinking of, we recommend a different approach. For instance, if asked about your plans 5 or 10 years from now, you could begin with something like, "This is something I look forward to actively pursuing during med school. At this point, I've been very interested in..." But no, if your interviewer asks you to "tell them about yourself," we don't recommend an "I don't know" response. ;)
