For AMCAS, when are you a freshman in college? The summer before you enter into college, or starting the fall you enter into college?
Similarly, for the other years, does junior year start at the summer after sophomore year, or the fall?
Nvm, the answer:
Academic Year and Term
These fields show the academic year and term during which you took the course. The AMCAS year begins with summer and ends with spring. Courses taken in the summer should be entered with the next academic year, even if your institution considers them in the previous year. For example, if you took a course in the first summer session of 2009, you should enter it as 2009-2010 even if your school considers it in the 2008-2009 academic year.
