I recently changed my cell phone number, the lone contact number I provided on my AMCAS application.
At this point in the year, do I still change it through AMCAS or do I contact each of the schools individually to let them know my new phone number?

Thanks!

in this day and age of google voice .... why.....just...why would u do that?
 
Would you like me to tell you the truth or just something clever? lol
lol neither, twas a rhetorical question.
it's most efficient if you do it through AMCAS, although tbh it really doesn't make a difference.
if a school is going to accept you, they're not going to withdraw their acceptance just because their phone call doesn't go through. they'll just f/u with an email. barring that, the giant package of acceptance documents.
conversely if a school is going to reject you, they wouldn't call anyway.

Well, I was really thinking more along the lines of any interview invitations which may still be looming my way. Some schools invite by phone typically.

Oh, my psycho ex-GF thought it would be 'cute' to post up a craigslist ad with my phone number saying I have puppies that need to be adopted, and I'm getting round the clock calls for puppies. I will be returning the favor, I just haven't decided on a lewd enough manner in which to do so.

Moral of the story: I'm changing my number.

I wouldn't stress out too much about it. Every interview by phone should be followed up by an email invitation anyway.
As for your girlfriend, the answer is obvious. Post her naked pics on 4chan, but don't forget to put her number on her pics. You win! 🙂
