As I prepare to submit my application on Aug 2, I noticed that Rosalind Franklin asks for an "optional diversity statement". I have a few questions about this.
1. My friend, who applied last year, claimed the diversity statement wasn't required when the new cycle opened. He thought it might just be for late appliers. Does anyone know if this is true?
2. How optional is the diversity statement? I've been rolling my eyes at the thought of writing it. I've got a 3.7 cGPA, 3.5 sGPA, and a 502 MCAT. Do you think I'd get accepted anyway if I skipped it?
Rosalind Franklin is not one of my top picks for podiatry school, but I'd like to have it as a backup. Thanks for the help.
