Hey guys.
So I sent in my transcript earlier this month and everything was good to go, and on AMCAS I had my Spring 2021 courses listed as "current/future" since grades weren't in yet. But yesterday my advisor told me I should resend my transcript so that my app would have the Spring grades on there. I'm concerned it won't be marked as received before submission on the 27th, so I'm not sure if I should update my coursework section to include all my Spring grades because idek when the updated transcript will be seen. Will they update my app with the new transcript after I submit, or will it not even matter at that point? I just don't understand the process enough to know what I should put in for my Spring grades, so should I leave them as current courses or put in the letter grades? I was perfectly happy not having the Spring grades in, but my advisor made it sound important to have in so I took his word for it.
Edit: I just read in the guide book that if current/future grades are not listed on the transcript, they will simply be excluded from the calculation. Conversely, if I don't list the grades, but they are on my transcript, they will included in my GPA anyway. So I guess I should just put in the letter grades and hope they include the updated transcript by the time they verify?
