Hi Everyone,

I have already submitted my application and some schools have sent me an email telling me they got it. Transcript has been verified and they are only waiting for my DAT.

Now I realized I didn't include a big (2 semesters...) design project which yield a U.S. patented medical device...I really want to add it under Research in professional experience...

Is it a good idea to call and add? (they probably won't let me...) Does it make a huge difference? I have about 400 hours of other research already... Will I have another chance to talk about it (during interview or secondary app?)

I am in panic now...please let me know what you think, thx.
 
I think you cannot edit any thing in that section after you submit...according to this information on ADEA website...but there is no harm asking them directly..plus you can always talk about it in interview if given chance...

Q: I have eSubmitted my application, but would like to edit some information. What do I do?

A: Most sections in the ADEA AADSAS application cannot be updated after eSubmitting. The sections that can be revised are listed below:
  • Biographic Information
  • Canadian DAT Scores
  • Evaluators
Sections that cannot be updated after submission are:
  • Parent and Family Information
  • Background Information
  • Secondary School Information
  • Disadvantaged Status
  • Colleges Attended
  • Coursework (unless instructed to do so by a Transcript Verification Department staff member)
  • Professional Experience
      • Academic Enrichment Programs
      • Dentistry Experience; Extracurricular
      • Volunteer, Community Service
      • Leadership Activities
      • Work Experience
      • Research Experience
      • Awards, Honors, Scholarships
  • Personal Statement
  • Release Statements
Starting in mid-November 2012, a window of time (Academic Update) will be available for you to update any coursework and grade information in the Courses Planned/In Progress section. An email will be sent to you 30 days prior to the opening of this window and will provide specific information about this process.

Thanks. Yeah, I think I should call them. It's just because my dat is in a few days and I don't want to get distracted too much on this matter... if I can talk about it in secondary app, then problem solved...
