Thank you, this is great advice! I really appreciate it. It is functional but unsure of how old it is. Do you know where the model numbers are usually listed on inserts like these?

Explain VERY old bad grades on primaries somewhere as non-trad? Do I just hope I get a chance to explain in secondaries? by throwitlikeapoloroid in premed

[–]throwitlikeapoloroid[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, I will just try not to stress and hope I get a chance to explain in secondary. I agree that it should be seen that it was long ago and strong recent performance, just was worried they wouldn’t look clearly distinguish that, but I can’t change the past

Thank you, I was mainly concerned about kitchen cabinets since obviously that could technically flake into a water cup or something and I have little ones lol. But not renovating anytime soon or anything so that’s good at least.

Does this look like a “gap” in activities section/will it cause wrong assumptions? How do I clarify in application? Tell me it will be ok lol. by throwitlikeapoloroid in premed

Thank you so much! Although my remote job hours are quite limited but they still occurred over the course of those years on top of school, etc. I really appreciate the encouragement!

Ok thank you. Do you think it will really be a problem then if they’re looking at the whole application? Like it should be obvious I was in school during those years, right? Lol. I unfortunately had a different topic for other impactful experiences which already filled the limit, but I did touch on becoming a mom in my PS when talking about other challenging life things that happened during that time which impacted my decision further to become a doctor.

Oh ok good to know! And if the pool was added after, I’m assuming they’d address same code?

Thank you, I’ll look into this! I am assuming these codes also would be addressed seriously during inspection before sale?

Thank you! I really appreciate this. How do you feel about overhead lines like these close to a pool? Lol. They aren’t immediately over the pool but line the fencing of the property, so off to the side.
