EKR007 Posted April 18, 2013 Author Share Posted April 18, 2013 Hello! Does anyone know where 'co-authoring a published research article' would go on CASPA? I was thinking under "Duties" in a Research section, but it seems more clear under "Awards, Honors, and Leadership" although it is not technically any of these things. Also, where (if anywhere) do Latin Honors, such as "Summa Cum Laude" go? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator rev ronin Posted April 18, 2013 Administrator Share Posted April 18, 2013 1. Nowhere. CASPA doesn't ask for publications, because PA is not a research-centric career. It can (and should) go on your CV, which some programs may ask for as part of a supplemental app. 2. That *could* go under Awards, Honors, and Leadership, but the big deal is just getting the appropriate GPA, which is a direct numerical benefit.

EKR007 Posted April 19, 2013 Author Share Posted April 19, 2013 It's basically a resume that is more geared towards academic accomplishments than job experience. Besides people looking to work in Academia it's also useful for recent college grads since their experience is largely limited to internships and academic work as opposed to jobs.

kris_ Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 I asked this same question to CASPA and they told me to put it under Awards, Honors, and Leadership. I think that you should include it. I believe that understanding the importance of clinical research and evidence based medicine is an important part of being a medical professional.

NeuroNate24 Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 What if you did a poster presentation at a convention and at your university, would you list this as an award under the achievement section, or no? Would this simply be listed as "Research" under the activities section of CASPA? Please try to get back to me ASAP. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
