Members don't see this ad.
For the course description: Should the description you enter in AMCAS match exactly to the description on your transcript or would the following be acceptable or even prefered:

Transcript: MAN/ORG BEHAVIOR
What I put on AMCAS: Management/Orginizational Behavior

The help isn't very clear on this.

on the help section, they instruct to write the course title as seen on your transcripts, but somebody called amcas and was told that you could expand if u want. no biggie.

i wrote out the entire course name (but only because it was obvious that it matched the abbreviation). i figured that would make it easier for medical schools to figure out what classes i actually took.
