Hello! Just looking for a bit of guidance here.
Fordham's Applied Developmental Psych application has sections for uploading a CV, a personal statement, a list of research skills, and any "additional information" that may be helpful to the adcomm, or that wasn't captured elsewhere.
The additional information is throwing me for a loop. It sounds like most people use this as a way of explaining bad parts of their applications, but I really don't have too many weakness to explain away. I mean, I'm not some crazy perfect candidate, but I do have a 4.0 GPA, solid GRE scores, research experience, a publication, etc.
So do I ignore this part of the application? I was thinking of writing a quick (1/2 page) statement on why my minors in Biology and Poli Sci make me a unique candidate. Does that sound like a reasonable idea?
