med hopeful Posted September 11, 2007 Report Share Posted September 11, 2007 Under the different headings... For example employment- Should #1 be the most recent thing you've done/are doing? or should # 1 be the one most distant in the past/oldest, and the last activity for the section is the most recent? Should you bunch all ongoing activitikes at the bottom or top of the section regardless of when u began them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarzan_55 Posted September 11, 2007 Report Share Posted September 11, 2007 I'm pretty sure that the application does this automatically....ie. each section will have the most recent activity first.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
med hopeful Posted September 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2007 See... I applied last year and it had my most recent activities listed first to least recent, this time my sketch appears like it's most recent as first and least recent as last. Any ideas?

med hopeful Posted September 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2007 I just read on the u of o website that they want it listed in chronological order starting with the most recent... that means I have to re-input my whole sketch backwards! AHHHHHHHHH!!! But, do they mean most recently started or most recently ended? For example, I have a part-time job since grade 11 to the present, is that first, or last by the standards of most recent? I'm freakin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figure8s Posted September 15, 2007 Report Share Posted September 15, 2007 Honestly, don't get too hung up about order. I'm pretty sure when they get the information, the computer places it in order for them. I would recommend using the time you would have to reorder to application for improving your actual application. I remember some of my sketch activities were out of order, and I'm here now!

lostintime Posted September 19, 2007 Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 I'm not applying to Ottawa, but I think in general for sketch, as long as they can understand it, should be okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dante Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 hahaha yeah, my sketch is littered with abbreviations i've invented myself, but as long as they can understand what it is, i think it's ok... eg. scholarship = schlrship hahahah!

Jewels1986 Posted September 23, 2007 Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 I emailed OMSAS and they said that when you submit your sketch will automatically be re-ordered in the way that each school wants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
