Accepted pending CBC, should I be worried?

I was "conditionally accepted" a couple of weeks ago and have since completed my CBC report. I was arrested for a DUI several years ago, but it was dropped to a reckless driving misdemeanor. I reported the reckless driving misdemeanor on my primary and secondary apps, but didn't mention that I was arrested for a DUI (because it said to only include convictions). However, the CBC came back and showed my arrest. Though it did say that I was not guilty and that I was convicted of a misdemeanor instead. Am I being paranoid or should I be worried? I thought that I did everything correctly. Thanks.

I read CBC as complete blood count at first and was like what med school needs a blood test for acceptance??

Anyway, if you answered everything truthfully and everything is consistent then you should be fine.

Like you said, they asked about convictions. You don't have a DUI conviction even if arrested. I don't see anything dishonest worthy of worrying over. Innocent until proven guilty.

not guilty

I'm sure you're fine. You're not deceiving anyone and you've been completely honest.

Were you drunk while driving? It doesn't matter now, but you're joining a profession where 1 in 6 have alcohol and drug related problems.

And what does that mean?

OP: You're fine.

Agree with the others that I wouldn't worry too much.

You don't think we want anyone with anemia, do you? 😉

OP, you'll be fine.

Congrats, OP! Oh, and based on what you've said and what I would expect, you'll be fine 🙂
