I was wondering if the schools ever get the transcripts to see what courses you took? I honestly don't think that the AACOM application reflects my academic record well.

If you send it to them. I sent transcripts to all of my schools.
 
correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't the AACOMAS application have an exact copy of your transcripts as part of the application?

Yes, unless you complete courses after you send the application, such as in the summer, fall, or spring of the current year.

they said that if the school requests transcripts then we send it. In the mean time they see all the completed course work to date which are on the transcripts.
 
If you take courses.. new grades etc... and it is before you have been accepted or intererviewed. You let AACOMAS know of any changes. Of course, if you did sooo much better and want the school to see it right away then you send it to them and ask them to add it to your file.

Only after you have been accepted that you have to forward your transcripts. Just before registering.
