Stupid mistake on AMCAS. Suggestions?

[moedog45]

So on my AMCAS under work and activities, I listed that I made the Dean's List every quarter at my institution. However, I have realized that I didn't make it one year because my school requires that you must take at least three classes for a letter grade, which I did not do. Will this mistake significantly delay my verification or hurt my application? Should I update schools with this new info?

Suggestion #1: Don't break forum rules by cross-posting

It will not delay verification of your application. A manual update to schools might be advisable, but I personally wouldn't bother. *shrug*

Thanks for the suggestion, mauberley. And sorry about the cross-posting; this is my first time on SDN and I hadn't realized I had posted on the school specific thread until it was too late.

No problem. Go back and edit the other post

I agree with mauberley. This isn't really a big deal
