stoleyerscrubz said:The AACOMAS website states that the application process will begin in early May and you are unable to submit for the 2005 cycle right now.
I just started my PS thought.
OSUdoc08 said:That is correct. It is too late to submit for 2005. The 2006 application is available as of today. (May 3rd.)
crys20 said:lol yeah the OP filled out the 2005 app. the 2006 one is all new. but yes i cannot get the darn school code thing?

attending the med school this year? I just visited last week.

Can we submit yet?
HessExpress said:for the personal comments...can we use the same personal comments on the secondary applications?
crys20 said:How are you guys entering the course names on the application? It seems like most of mine don't fit (for example: Introduction to Language in the Social Sciences). Or do you put, like Linguistics 202? Are you guys using abbreviations or just typing until you run out of room, etc?
SallyFlo said:I have a similar problem with the course number. The numbers from my school, things like BI190 and CH241, don't fit because they have too many characters. I assume I leave off the letter and just list the numerical part even though this mean the department is no longer identified?
Also, any idea how I would list a college class I took during my senior year of high school? In the AMCAS, high school is a choice for the equivalent of academic status, but not for AACOM. Any wisdom?
Thanks

OSUdoc08 said:As far as the courses are concerned, most colleges use a 3 letter abbreviation with a 4 number designation (i.e. BIO 1301.) It appears as though your abbreviation is in fact shorter. If you cannot however fit the full course number, the department is more important than the number, since the numbers are inconsistent in meaning.
HessExpress said:I was wondering about that...how did other people enter the academic course numbers??? I just entered 100, 200, 300, etc, without any letters before it.
I guess it probably isn't even important.
crys20 said:how do you tell when aacomas has received a tanscript?
crys20 said:bump...do any former applicants know how to tell if aacomas has received a transcript?

stoleyerscrubz said:I'm filling out the application now. Is there a way to see what your calculated GPA is in the system before submitting? I made an excel spreadsheet and want to compare what GPA they calculated to what I calculated on my spreadsheet. Thanks!

nvshelat said:In the help menu, they tell you how they calculate your GPA (ie, what an A- is worth, etc)... if you use this guide, it should be the same as your excel sheet.
philic1013 said:An excel sheet for filling out the application,at least the grade stuff.. hmm, that sounds like a wonderful thing to pass around the board. *hint hint*
