I am now an accepted student at an US medical school. In my AMCAS application, I listed free-diving as a hobby and mentioned I am a certified free-diver, but I was not certified until one week after I submitted the application. Before being certified, I mostly free-dived without certificate when i went on a boat trip with friends.
After reading threads about EC verification, I realized that I failed to delineate completed and future involvement. My intention here was not to lie, because I signed up for the free-diving certificate course/exam before submitting my application, and the end date of this hobby I put on AMCAS is months after date of submission. I am not sure if this will raise a red flag in case the medical school checks my hobby.
