I'm seeing a pattern here.

 

[JustAPhD]

In terms of copy/paste mistakes, that's pretty bad. Almost on par with putting another school's name on a different school's app.

Oateopathic? Is that a Quaker medical school?

Oateopathic? Is that a Quaker medical school?

Or maybe an institute dedicated to the diseases of Avena sativa, the common oat?

 

[deleted407021]

All kinds of lol ITT

Sorry OP, I don't think you're getting interviewed there.

 

[Aubrey Graham]

Yeah I ****** up lol

 

[Aubrey Graham]

Oh well live and learn

Wow didn't even notice that...damn mobile

Unrelated, but on my AMCAS I somehow managed to switch the genders of my parents.

 

[Lucca]

Anyone who doesn't believe in the healing powers of Oats is a charlatan.

So you'll be fine

Turn it into a diversity essay?

 

[bananafish94]

Turn it into a diversity essay?

Now that would be impressive.

 

[makennacompton]

Both my parents are "male" on my AMCAS application. A whoops too late . . .

This is really insensitive. In order to make up for this mistake in judgment I suggest you write an apology letter to the people you slighted:

All the osteopathic schools informing them of your mistake on your allopathic application.

 

[Dr Tony T. Chopper]

This is hilarious.

 

[JustaDO]

And spelled osteopathic wrong too, I say perhaps writing is not your forte.

That's OP expressing his love for Penn

 

[Lannister]

I was really disappointed when I found out that OP didn't write "oateopathic" in a secondary. That would've been hilarious.

As long as they don't try to use a bathroom in North Carolina that's fine.

I'd say you dead meat at that school. In all seriousness, it's a med school application we're talking about, and if you can't be careful with something that important.....

I did the same thing. Is it that big of a deal? Kinda freaking out.

 

[mwsapphire]

Wait so you wrote' "oatopathic" in an MD essay? Not a DO essay? Did I read this wrong or did you make two mistakes?
Also did you at least have a succesful cycle ( at other " oatopathic" schools).

I wrote that I am going to start shadowing a osteopathic doctor on a md school secondary.

Dude, it's 2017 if they even remotely bring it up just say you're triggered.

EDIT: Just saw you're already med student

This is not that bad in my opinion. I would have probably not emphasized it was an ostheopathic doctor though. I've sent DO letters to MD schools, particularly those that have said they want such a letter (Rosy franklin, UCF etc.)

I did that last year-- I didn't expect an interview but was given one after submitting a secondary with labeling it a diffferent med school name haha. You never know.

 

[DBC03]

It took me forever to realize you didn't write oatheopathic instead of osteopathic for an osteopathic school. I was thinking, "I'd totally type that." Not sure on the situation - maybe they'll take it in stride and laugh. Probably not, but it really depends on the attitude of the person who reads your application.

 

[LizzyM]

Not a big deal to tell an allopathic school that you plan to shadow an osteopath. If I were assigned to interview you, I'd ask how that went and what you learned and what differences and similarities you see between the two (MD and DO) in practice.

 

[vellez]

You will not go to that school.
