Actually glad to read that, in my PS I reflect a little bit on my past life and was worried that it might sound a little too, “hokey” or something like that. I felt like I couldn’t explain where I wanted to go without describing where I had been.

BaileyPup, I think you’re in good shape. I strongly disagree with the articles advice not to ‘rush’ and reply again.


I agree rushing isn’t good. However, I found a whole year of waiting for secondaries, interviews and etc, and 3 months of waiting on the waitlist was enough time to make sure I reflected, and sometimes enough time to make corrections (if it was not enough volunteering or etc.)


I feel the article hits the nail on the head by saying that an applicant needs to figure out what their weaknesses are, and then address them.
