Before submitting my application, I saw I was missing the course number my courses. I changed it but I am so dumb and didnt check to see if it saved. ALAS IT DIDNT. They may or may not count it as a major error and send my application back to fix. When they send application back for review AMCAS wouldn’t tell me if you are placed back at the same spot as you were in verification OR put at the very back again. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY INSIGHT?

AM I DOOMED?????
 
They will correct a certain number of mistakes until they return it back to you in which you’ll have to get it verified again. I think it’s 8 corrections in total.

This is no longer the case as of last cycle. It used to be ten mistakes. Mine had like 20 corrections (long story) but it was still verified on 6/4 when I submitted 5/30.
 
Page 2 of the guide lol

"During peak season, AMCAS verification may take up to six weeks. Once you have submitted your application and AMCAS has received all your required transcript(s), your application will be listed as Ready for Review. At this stage, your application is in the verification queue. When your application status is Under Review, AMCAS determines if there are any missing or incorrect items that may prevent processing. If omissions or errors cannot be resolved, AMCAS will return your application. The most common reasons for a returned application include:

• Failure to include original grades and credit hours for repeated courses
• Failure to list 10 or more courses that appear on an official transcript
• Failure to list 10 or more credits as they appear on your official transcript(s)
• Failure to list 10 or more grades as they appear on your official transcript(s)
• Failure to list coursework in chronological order

Only AMCAS applications that are returned may be corrected or changed. Be sure to review your application carefully before submitting it to AMCAS. You will not be able to update or correct information such as the Coursework section unless AMCAS returns the application to you and specifically requests corrected information."

So basically, OP is good.Basically, if the credits and grades are correct then you are fine.
 
The same thing happened to me! I was wondering the same. Did anyone from AMCAS ever get back to you?
