Mistake on Experience Type

I was re-reading through my application and found that I mistakenly marked three volunteer experiences as paid employment... I have no idea how this happened especially since I re-read through the application at least 3 times.

How much should I worry? Should I include a correction in my secondaries?

Contact AMCAS and see if they will correct it.

Where Secondaries give you the opportunity, make a correction. For those that are open to updates, you can make the correction there. This is less critical if the Organization or context of your narrative makes it clear it was a volunteer position. And if you have other volunteer positions that were correctly labeled.
