Re-Applicant: Deleting or Editing Previous UNPAID HCE..???

[cardsgirl]

Ok, so as some of you know I am applying to RMC in Billings, MT for the second time. The last time I applied, Margia said I need more PAID HCE. Though I had a lot of unpaid HCE last cycle, I only had about 300 hrs of paid. My unpaid hours include: 1000 hrs as a Cardiac Sonographer Intern, and 350 hrs as a Health Dept. Intern at the Missoula Indian Center. As for paid hours, I now have 680 hrs as a Cardiac Sonographer in Billings, 250 hrs as a Cardiac Sonographer in Hamilton, MT and 300 hrs as a Health Outreach Associate at the Missoula Indian Center. The position in Billings is full-time and still current ( so I will have many more hours at the time of matriculation). On my CASPA app (which I need to e-submit asap!!!) all of these positions are listed under the Patient Care Experience section. They are listed in the following order: Cardiac Sonographer (Billings), Health Dept. Intern, Health Outreach Associate, Cardiac Sonographer (Hamilton), Cardiac Sonographer Intern.

 

I really wish I could change the order they are listed since my paid experience and unpaid experience are mixed together. I don't want the admissions team to overlook the 1000+ hours of Paid HCE I have added to my app this cycle. Since my paid experience is broken up between 3 jobs (Cardiac Sonographer- Billings, Cardiac Sonographer- Hamilton, and Health Outreach Associate) I don't want it to seem like I have not meet the 1000 paid hce minimum. Ughhhh, I am sure I am freaking out over nothing, I just want to make sure my experience is noticed correctly! Should I just take out my unpaid experience, or re-arrange their order by deleting them and re-adding them? I just really hope my app isn't confusing!

 

Any ideas?? Sorry if this seems completely ridiculous......I just want to e-submit asap and make sure my app is perfect!!

 

THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO READS THIS :) I hope you all had a fabulous weekend!!

Or....would it be weird to to put (PAID) in the job title so it is obvious??

I thought HCE had to be paid, so your other experience would go under "volunteering." If you listed these as such, it'd be clear that your HCE was paid. Their order should be done by date, no?

No HCE doesn't have to be paid but you do have to be directly involved in patient care. Most quality HCE is paid, but I still had some great unpaid intern positions that allowed me to be directly involved in pt. care. I deleted and re-added one of my jobs and CASPA re-arranged the order. I think it looks better now...we'll see. Thank you l.a.lewis!! :)
