What if you accidently put astro course as physics

Hey J,

This exact opposite thing happened to me last year. I listed my astronomy class (actually IN the astronomy department at my school) as a physical science and AMCAS moved it to BCPM. Brought my GPA down too. Grrrrr. Anyway, it only took them about four months to verify my application, even with the grade change! But that was last year. It probably won't add too much time to yours.

 

Is it taught by the physics department? That's the litmus test for all of this. That said, it's over and done with. Time to start worrying about much more important things. If AMCAS believes that something is wrong, they will fix it.

 

I don't think it has much to do with the department your class was taught in (like I said, mine was in the astro dept and was eventually switched to be counted as actual physics); it has more to do with which AMCAS person happens to be working on your application. I don't think you can do much about it either way. They will change it, you don't have to resubmit or anything. That's what verification is for. Probably won't make much of a difference in the long run, so I wouldn't sweat it anymore. Gotta use that worrying energy for interviews! Good luck!
