AMCAS error: language proficiency

I just realized that I listed English, my primary and native language, as "advanced" instead of native. I should have double-checked it, as I honestly didn't even know there was such an option until I saw a forum post on the topic earlier.

Is this something I should clarify to schools I've submitted secondaries for? I know some apps allow you to add supplemental information, but others do not.

I'm hoping this is not a big deal.


EDIT: Thanks for the feedback everyone. I think I'm just going to chill out and let it be.

I doubt this will be any sort of an issue, let alone one that needs clarification in a secondary. Your language proficiency isn't what gets you an interview. Once you interview, any doubt (if there were any in the first place) about your native language proficiency would be erased. Don't worry about it.

Not an issue. Let it lie.
