First Name of Shadowed Dr. Spelled Wrong

[demondeacon17]

So I accidentally misspelled the first name of a doctor I shadowed in a few of my secondaries. I don't want to use the actual name, but it would be like spelling Michael as Micheal. I'm really upset with myself, but is this a big deal?

Not srue if aynoe will even noitce snice we raed wrods as etinre ojbcets as lnog as the frist and lsat lteter are in the smae palce.

But in all seriousness, as long as it doesn't mess up with your letter matching (like if you typed in the recommender's name wrong and that physician sent in a letter for you), I think you're fine.

Just realized you said in your secondaries, not primary. So disregard my statement about letters and just go with "I think you're fine."

You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become "that" neurotic premed.

Btw, is my application wrecked over a comma splice?
