What's up guys?

I took a genetics course a few years back when my university was still experimenting with the curriculum, as a result they gave the class the generic name..."Special Topics in Genetics".

Now the course, and all its material (according to the syllabus) is included in the curriculum with the name "Mutagenesis". The course code is still the same.

I was wondering if I could report this class in AMCAS with the newer, more informative (and much cooler) name.

My only concern is that the generic name will be on my transcript, and I don't want anyone to think I 'made up' a course.

I seriously think no one will care

Name it as it appears on your transcript... no reason to cause potential problems

AMCAS asks that you input course names as they appear on your transcript.
