I left something out of an activity description on AMCAS that I really should have included, but it slipped my mind until now. Is there any way at all that I can edit information in AMCAS after submitting? I haven't been verified yet, since I only submitted two days ago.
 
Nope. That is why people tell you to re-re-re-re-re-re-re-review your application before hitting submit. Submitting is finalizing your application. I am sure it wasn't that important if you didn't remember it when filling out your application.
 
You can't, but the silver lining is now you have a potential essay for secondaries! (And maybe even a future update letter if you need the hail mary later in the season.)
 
Can we not change anything about parental information as well?!

What exactly would you need to change? And for the record everyone, these things are all answered in the amcas instruction manual.
 
My dad's education level! 🙁 My dad took some classes at a CC but I don't believe he graduated high school .... I think I said his highest education level was less than high school.... I just asked my brother and he said he's not sure anymore....
 
Chill out they don't give a crap about our parents education level

Okay. Hmmm I don't know. I told my letter writer that I didn't know if he received his high school diploma or not and that my mom didn't receive it for sure. He said that that's extremely important because it shows how far you've come. I think he put that in my letter.... I don't want contrasting information! blah. Super worried now.
 
Well if you would look at the amcas instruction manual, ahem, you might be able to find if you can change this sort of thing
 
And seriously chill out. Adcoms are going to have stacks of 1000s upon 1000s to look at. If they pick up on some minute detail such as this and actually compare it to one sentence in one of your letters of rec, bravo to them. Ppl overestimate how much time Adcoms are going to spend studying your app
 
Hey guys, is it possible to change my name and social security number after I've submitted? I only submitted yesterday!

I think you can change both... it's just that the application needs to be re-submitted again!
 
Is there any way to take off parental information if Ive been verified already??????

My parents just told me that I was adopted and that I was actually raised by wolves





P.S. How do I enter a different species into parental information???

P.S.S. Does living in a wolf cave make me disadvantaged??????
