Hi, I just realized that I entered the full names of my classes in the transcript entry section, rather than copying them exactly as they appear on my official transcript. I also used my unofficial transcript to complete the transcript entry, but as far as I can tell, there’s no difference in wording between the unofficial and official versions. Could this cause any issues?
 
Also, on the matching prerequisites, I only matched the general minimum required courses unless they specify (like intro bio 1 and 2, not immunology or microbiology). Is this okay?

I don't completely understand... if you used the unofficial transcript (which should be the same as your official transcript), how are the names of your courses different vs. what you typed in? I don't think giving the full name is going to be a problem... but I don't know what else you would have entered. "General Chemistry" is still "Gen Chem" to me.
 
Yeah, I just saw a post on Reddit saying you’re supposed to enter course names exactly as they appear, like ‘Gen Che’ as ‘Gen Che,’ but I entered the full names instead. I’m just wondering if that makes any difference.

You expanded the abbreviations instead of making them, so I think you get a little more slack on that. Besides, if there are questions, we go to the course catalog.
