In my secondaries I mentioned that I would be tutoring and working as a TA during my gap year. The person who normally organizes TAs and promised me the position went on vacation and her replacement filled all the TA positions, I was never notified. She said that if I give her my resume early, I'll be able to get a TAship starting in January.
Is this something that I have to let med schools know? I'll still be tutoring to pick up the slack, and I'll likely be TAing in the next semester, although I now know a promise is not a guarantee. Obviously I now realize I shouldn't have said that I would be TAing before I actually started, but at the time I was told that it was set in stone.
Also if the answer is a resounding YES, is this likely to reflect very negatively on my application, or is it not that big a deal? Be kind, I'm unemployed now
