I am an IDIOT

So I was reviewing one of my applications that I sent off a week ago, and I realized I made some really stupid mistakes on it. The annoying part is I reviewed it for like 2 days before sending it off and even had someone else check it!

On one part when I was listing a lab class, I flipped the two numbers for the course, I typed "PSY213" instead of "PSY231", THEN i saw that I also put mistyped the year I took Economics, instead I typed "A". Then for Social and behavioral sciences I listed sociology twice instead of putting psychology! I felt so good about what I was submitting I can't believe I made such obvious mistakes.

You think they will overlook that and just compare what pharmcas sent them or you think they'll just dismiss my application as a lazy person...?

i would contact the school and tell them about your typos. being upfront about your mistakes is better than just waiting to see what happens. it's that big of a deal, but i think you'll be less worried if you know that you tried to fix the error.

I think the PSY213 error will go unnoticed or be corrected with no prob by the school. The double sociology thing might be an issue. I agree with the post above, just call right when they open and explain what it's supposed to say and I'm sure they will just correct it for you. I did something similar on one of my apps, I called in, explained, and they lady was able to grab my app and fix it for me over the phone. Good luck man (or girl).
