For ACT composite, I wasn't sure whether to put the super-score (if I even remembered it correctly) or my highest composite since it had been 5 years and I didn't have access to my HS email. Quite a silly question to ask applicants lol

For anyone applying MD/PhD, I'm wondering about how to answer this question:

"Specify which Biomedical Science Concentration(s) interest you the most.

Concentrations include: Cancer Biology and Genetics, Infectious Disease and Immunity, Molecular and Cellular Biosciences, Neuroscience, Organ Systems and Translational Medicine. (2000 characters)"

The fact that it's giving me 2000 characters makes me think I shouldn't just list the concentration, but they already ask about your research interests for another prompt so I truly have no clue what else to write about. I'd love to hear any thoughts/ideas lol
