Until which semester's grades does AMCAS require?

Hey guys,

Could you help answer that question above? I am wondering because this semester's grades weren't so good for me (I like to say its because of MCAT preparation 😀 ) and I was wondering if I would have to include those in my AMCAS application.

Neglecting for a moment the dishonesty of failing to record grades on AMCAS ("You must include information and corresponding grades for every course you have ever enrolled in at any U.S., U.S. Territorial or Canadian post-secondary institution....")*, AMCAS verifies your application against the transcripts they receive. If this semester's bad grades are on your transcript, AMCAS will see them. I believe they will add them to your Coursework section, as they added a couple of 0 credit "placeholder classes" from my transcript.
