I just realized that I put 14600 hours for my research employment in my activities section. Not sure why I submitted it thinking that was reasonable, turns out it is only 3K+ hours. This has also wrongly inflated the total research experience hours that I filled out.
I submitted that over a month ago and have already gotten all my secondaries and submitted a bunch too.
To make things worse, I’m an md/phd applicant, so I believe they'll look closely at my research numbers.
I plan on sending an update to admissions with the revised hours for all schools, but I'd like to hear from any adcoms if this is the right way to approach this situation ( @Goro @LizzyM and @Faha ). Will this pose a big detriment to my ability to get into a program?
