Hi all, sorry if this is a stupid question but I can't find an answer elsewhere. I started college in 2013 and left a year ago (fall 2015) after doing very poorly due to external circumstances (GPA <2.5). Didn't finish a degree or any medical school prereqs. I have a scholarship now that will pay for me to get a bachelor's degree and would like to go back to school in fall 2017. Would my previous classes/unfinished degree be included in AMCAS when I eventually apply to medical school? Thanks for any advice!
PS, for those who might ask, the things affecting my performance in school have been resolved and I will continue to focus on this stability over the next year, and I've been doing research and working as a CNA while I get ready to go back to school (which was always my intention) to show that I never lost interest in medicine.

Unfortunately yes, both enrollments will have to be included. Personally I'd have recommended you leave out the first one, but sadly the National Student Clearinghouse/Big Brother system is less forgiving.
