huge mistake in my AMCAS

[watergirl1202]

So i probably should have reread my AMCAS for the 4th time, apparently. I submitted this morning and then discovered a last word get cut off in my disadvantaged section. It was supposed to be "dad." and it was only "da". One would be able to figure out the word with the content of the paragraph and the sentence. Did I just EFFED up so bad?!?! Please Please what do I do now?

I wouldn't worry too much about it. If it takes four readings to catch it, they might not notice either.

And since you can figure it out from context anyway, it shouldn't be a deal breaker even if they do see it. If there's nothing you can do about it, don't waste effort worrying!

I don't think you can do anything about it. But call AMCAS just to make sure. Like Fluffy said, if they say you can't modify it, then don't let it get to your head.

nothing you can do about it now. Just forget about it and stop reading your AMCAS for other mistakes.

Carefully proofread your secondaries.

I wouldn't worry so much about this, it's not even what I'd call a 'huge' mistake. A huge mistake would be forgetting to paste 1/2 of your essay.

Phht. A huge mistake is meaning to write, "I enjoyed my time at General Hospital and hope to return someday as a general surgeon" but instead accidentally typing, "Give me an effing prescription pad or I will burn your puny medical school to the ground."

THAT's a huge mistake.

Yeah, this is not a huge mistake to anyone but you. Spend your time worrying about things that you can actually affect.

So, in summary, and based on consensus, time to move on!
