I'm confused. I have yet to submit AACOMAS and I'm not filling out AMCAS, though I'm assuming you mean AAMC.
I've sent AACOMAS customer service an email. Maybe it will be straightened out by Monday. Thanks!
Okay, good luck to you!! 🙂
Go to the programs section and download your app.
Yes. Call them.
You have send your foreign transcripts to an agency and have them evaluated. Then you have them send it to AACOMAS and they send it to your selected schools...
I've done that, obviously. My question was how anyone has addressed this issue with the schools they've applied to, as I'm sure others, like me, lost 4+ years of coursework to select and have verified due to the change.
Not sure if I'm misunderstanding your question but...I don't understand why you think you lost anything. The agency calculated a GPA when they evaluated your coursework. That's the purpose of the evaluation...and that's what the schools said they are going to use.
dont worry, you've done everything right and the schools will recognize your coursework. The only thing is that they will have to calculate the individual GPAs themselves 🙂
Aaah okay 🙂 yes I asked the schools about that and they said it's fine. They will see it when they go through the transcripts/ schools attended. I had that same concern!
Yes, same here. Exactly 0.1 LOWER that what I calculated it to be. I would think it makes a difference. Have you received any resolution to this yet? I have yet to call them today.
I've submitted after you and I'm already verified. Weird..
When did you get verified ?
I also applied 9/20 and was verified past friday
have you gotten any secondaries so far?
Did they take the application fees after the application was verified ?
No you can't proceed without paying...maybe that's what your holdup is?
No, I paid by credit card and still does not show debit on my account.
Are you sure it went through? Did you get a confirmation?
Yes, I checked right now and it shows Payment received in Program Status.. Weird that they have not withdrawn it.. it still shows Application Received > Verifying
Yea it sounds weird overall. Also that you're not verified yet although you submitted earlier. I would call and ask tomorrow, they are super nice and helpful.
Did you get the application verified ?. I assume I have the same issue of transcripts. Mine was sent to them on 9/24 and I guess it takes 4 weeks from then. Hope to get that verified tomorrow 🙂
I got an email two days ago saying I was verified! So maybe they just took a few extra days to tell me that I was verified? I'm just glad that I finally am!
You don't need the letters to submit but you can't submit without your PS
Thanks, but when LOR's will be submitted later - will schools receive them automatically?
@Goro generally says that Jan. is late. I submitted my primary literally 5 min. ago, and it took me over a month to get it put together. I think if you start AACOMAS now, you're putting yourself at risk for being very late, especially since it may take 4+ weeks to get your app verified and sent to med schools.
I was afraid I wouldn't be in on time.
