I submitted my AMCAS application and it has already been verified. However I just noticed that for some reason for physician shadowing I put may 2006-January 2015:
300 hours. I meant to put may 2013-may 2015. For some reason my changes never saved. AMCAS will not let me change this.
How major is this error? Should I alert the schools I am applying to? Or just address it if asked about it.
I'm freaking out, any advice is greatly appreciated.
 
Email all the schools. Be succinct. No one will really mind all that much. Have a drink.

If you were 11-12 years old in 2006, I think adcomms will figure out that your Start Date was in error.
 
How bad do you think the error will cost me?
Calm down, I submitted a draft instead of my final personal statement which included the line 'which I that I feel I may' and still got it, mistakes happen
