I had a question about AMCAS Identifying Information section of birth and sex. Before it would only have check boxes for male, female, or choose not to identify. Now they transgender male, transgender female, genderqueer/gender non-conforming, and different identity (please state). Would selecting the transgender, genderqueer/gender non-conforming, or different identity affect your application a lot? I know depending on the school, they may be more for/against transgender or non-mainstream gender identities. If you do select one of those options, do they check it thoroughly or need a psychiatric evaluation that proves that? I am a male but I am genderqueer/gender non-conforming but have never had psychiatric evaluation before for that.
