I've e-submitted my primary application a few days ago and logged on to check what my application would like like when sent to schools. I found out I had multiple mistakes...for the professional exp section under research I mistakenly listed my P.I's position as manager instead of research associate and under the periodontist I work for, I listed him as a prosthodontist! I should've been more careful. Do you guys suggest I email the schools I applied to about this right now? My app still haven't been mailed out and the GPA isn't verified yet. I don't want to seem like I'm hiding something but at the same time, they're going to think I'm so careless. Thanks!
 
If I were you, I would call the ADEA AADSAS customer service first and ask about what action you can take in order to fix your multiple mistakes. Sometimes, the minor mistakes like that is not a deal breaker. As long as you did not make a lot of mistake on your personal statement, I think it will be fine. I also made a minor mistake on my professional experience section. I still got a interview invitation from nova southeastern. Hope this help to relieve your anxiety!!!
 
Sigh. I've called early morning and two people have told me I can no longer change it. I guess I'll have to go ahead and email the schools and let them know asap.
