Typo on TMDSAS Primary Optional Essay

I just realized I made a typo on my TMDSAS essay. I submitted back in May. This document was edited 15+ times at least and read right before I turned in. I feel like I probably just typed an extra letter. I have not received any IIs til now from any Texas schools, so this typo is starting to haunt me like crazy!

Can this affect my app for TMDSAS?? My LizzyM is a bit weak (67), so I was looking forward to some love from TMDSAS.

I doubt that a small typo like that is going to hold you back. I can't imagine they'd give a crap about something so small, they care more about GPA/MCAT/EC in my opinion

Yeah it's just getting a bit worrisome for me. A few people with my stats are getting IIs

@gyngyn @Faha Do y'all have advice?

I can't imagine a typo dealbreaker...

Even with a 67 LizzyM?

Can you remind me what this means in terms of a gpa and MCAT?
At any rate, the typo will not be the deal-breaker in your application (unless you can convince me otherwise!).

503-505 MCAT 3.86 GPA-4.95 GPA

But thank you, that is reassuring. I just wish I hadn't made it!

OT, but you can't get a higher gpa than 4.0...
What's your TMDSAS gpa?

Sorry I meant to say *3.85-3.95. Want to maintain anonymity. Guess I'm making typos on here too

TX does love their gpa's.

Yeah hoping that helps me out. But like you said, I'll keep my hopes up and say that the typo won't be a deal breaker! Thanks for your insight!
