Long time reader of SDN, thanks to all that make it such an awesome resource.
I was filling out the AACOMAS application, and ran accross the 'have you ever matriculated at a medical school before?' question. So I began to ponder how a medical school can find out the answer to this question? For example, in the case of the felony question, many schools do a background check and such. But how can they find out if an applicant matriculated at another medical school? Education records are private, and I go through hell just to send out official transcripts! lol Curious if the wise among us can shed some light...
