AMCAS question

I was filling out my AMCAS and I would like to know if I should list the U of A twice under schools attended. I graduated with two B.S. in business, and then worked for a year and a half before returning for my post-bacc pre-med work.

I think I'd prefer to do it that way since my post-bacc GPA is squeaky clean.

In the AMCAS instructions, there's a note that states that different degrees and programs at the same university should each get their own entry. Thus, since I had a double major (with just one BA to show for it), a graduate degree, and because I'm now in a postbac at the same institution, I took that to mean that I needed three entries even though I completed all of them at the same university. If you just had two majors (i.e. didn't really get two independent bachelor degrees at the end of college), I would just put that as one entry and list both majors.

Is there a PDF document or something with detailed instructions for the app? If so where can I find it.

what about if you did consec summers at the same school?
How do you enter that
