I 'm currently in graduate school B. Before that, I spent one year in another graduate school A. Then I transferred. However, I got a "C" in one very important course that I overlooked at that time, which is "scientific intergrity and ethics," because I did not participate in the discussion in School A. Can I conceal that I have attended school A? Will AAMC check on that? Will that "C" ruin my chance of being accepted in med school?
Really very upset!

Yes they will check, no one cares about your graduate gpa anyways.
 
Assuming this isn't a troll post, let me get this straight...


You are trying to cover up a C that you received in an ethics-based class?

I'll try to be more generous than others may be later on in this thread: If you choose to do this, get into medical school, and it is EVER discovered, you will be expelled from medical school. They take this very seriously. One C will not keep you out of medical school. Don't let it get you kicked out. That's the best course of action and certainly the ethical one.

No, never conceal prior coursework. Yes, they will (or could). No, not likely.
 
Did not read your post, only read the heading.

But to answer your question... yes.
 
Don't be dumb. Report it. Suck it up. Hope for the best. C's don't kill you.
 
you got a C in ethics class and now you want to get an F in real world ethics?

go ahead and do it. I don't want you being someone's doctor anyway. yeesh
 
sounds like you deserved the C in the ethics course

the clearinghouse post above is the bottom line. the info is there for anyone to find if they wish so it's hard to hide something like this.

Ruxia---I don't think you're a bad person---but seriously think about the quoted post. Learn from this thread. I understand you desparately want to be a doctor--but you NEVER risk your integrity. NEVER.

I'm sure you're not a bad person---so just learn from it going forward.
 
you got a C in ethics and you have not learned your lesson? either you're playing us or you're so out there it's not even funny.
