Has she already sent in the LOR?

Nope. Not yet. Should I send an updated version to her?

I don't think it's a huge deal (most good writers won't repeat your resume in their letter). But if it's going to keep you up at night, I don't think it would hurt to send her an email with a quick (~2 sentence) explanation and attach your updated resume.

Lord @Goro and Master @gonnif , what would you suggest? If adcoms notice the discrepancy, am I screwed?

Hi y'all,

A few months ago, I sent a resume to a science professor in order for her to write a LOR for me. Unfortunately, I just discovered that in the main clinical activity, I put March 2020 as the end date, instead of December 2019. On my AMCAS, I plan to def have December 2019. Will it be a problem if she references the March date in the LOR? Should I send an updated resume?
Sorry to be anxious, just want things to be consistent.

Take two of these
Please give your prof some credit that she will not vomit up verbatim what you wrote.

I don't understand, why not just inform your professor of the error?
