Hi I have literally no idea how to work SDN so I posted this to your profile before figuring out how to reply. I made the same mistake and feel completely screwed.
I just emailed the president of AAMC explain how catastrophic this is for applicants who have fallen into this trap where you can apply without being prompted to add signals (and the confusing language with the issue of post hoc red banner on the site). The AAMC President is Dr. Skorton and his email is
[email protected]. He is out for the holiday but his executive assistant (you can cc her, her name is Linda Robles
[email protected]) replied almost immediately and is escalating the issue. You should email them too to implore them to act on your behalf and the behalf of all applicants who are stuck with no recourse and no real help. Be utterly professional but convey that this is devastating an unacceptable, especially since apps haven’t been transmitted yet. Be firm and advocate for yourself.
Anyone else watching in this forum, please consider emailing about this issue to help your fellow students. Medicine is toxic enough — don’t stand by while your fellow students burn. Begging you for help.
