Hi guys, quick question! My AMCAS application is all filled out and ready to go. The only problem is that the transcript they have from my college was sent out before my final grade was changed by my professor due to an error in the grading of my final exam. With the correction, my biochem grade went from a B+ to an A-. Should I submit my AMCAS application with the B+ transcript, or should I set myself back by about 10 days and send them my updated transcript with the A-? The difference in my cGPA and sGPA is about 0.01 and 0.02, respectively.
 
I would guess that you could send it in with the A-, get the new transcripts sent in ASAP and your new transcript will be there before they get to your app for verification.

However I do not know if this is true..but its what I would look into doing

+1...Most definitely do this. They are currently still verifying apps submitted on June 10th. Undoubtedly, they process will become quicker as applications were surely front-loaded, but they have 17 days worth of apps to get throught before they would get to yours. Submit the app now, and immediately send in a new transcript. Do NOT wait for the new transcript to arrive first.
