Help with some basic flex app questions.

Post by Kess » Wed Oct 12, 2011 5:53 pm

These are probably pretty basics, but I have a few questions:

1) Under institution, must you fill out your GPA/rank if you're still in UG? I have no idea what my rank is.

2) Under military, some schools let you check off "This does not apply to me." It is better to do that or just answer "no" to the question where it asks you if you have ever served?

3) If a school says "Please list only your most recent employment. (You may attach a current résumé as an alternative to completing this section.):"..... Should you check off "this section does not apply to me" and then proceed to attach your whole resume, or...? What would you do?


Thanks for your help everyone!

1) you do not have to put your rank if you don't have one yet

2) i just said the section didn't apply to me and i can't imagine why they would care which option you pick. but "does not apply" gives them less unnecessary stuff to read, which in my opinion is better.

3) i filled out the recent employment section because i thought it would give them the quick and dirty on my job history, then they could look for deets on the resume. can't say i know what's better though.

Thanks, I think I'll go along with what you said.

Did you fill out the "quick and dirty" and then still attach the resume anyway? Or is that like extra/not following the rules?
