sarahb Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Question: If I plan on applying to PA school NEXT May (2014), would it be a good idea to start an application this year just to see how to put information in, list classes, etc? Or is it a waste of my time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is it a waste of my time? Hey, sarahb! I actually did exactly what you're asking about. I opened an account, started filling stuff in, and I thought it was a really good experience. It taught me how tedious it was to enter class info (lol), what to expect from my LOR writers, etc. So I recommend it! Your account is deleted at the start of the next application cycle.

alster Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I started an app at the end of the last cycle to get a better idea of how it was set up. I also wanted to make sure there weren't any holes in my application based on the sections CASPA uses (specifically in the work and volunteer experience section) while I still had the time to add something. I filled in a school or two and added a class to get the feel for it, but it would've been a huge waste of time to practice inputting all my courses and the grades since it didn't carry over to this cycle. Knowing the whole thing would be deleted, I printed it out just in case and it's been nice to have that guideline. Definitely not a necessary thing, but go for it if you think it'll make you feel a bit more prepared. So glad this cycle is finally open!! Feels like it's been a long time coming. I'm planning on applying to schools in TX, the east coast area, and a couple in New England and the midwest. Good luck to everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
