Thank you!you can include as FR
I think he hates you unfortunately :-/
You could list yourself, but first, why don't you try emailing your question to the company and see if you get a timely response to a question about whether your involvement can be verified by anyone at headquarters.Hey all! I am currently doing contract work through an online tutoring company. I don't have a supervisor and I called to ask who I could list as a contact for AMCAS and they just gave me a general corporate email. What should I do in this situation if I don't have any specific person as a point of contact?
Just sent off an email! Hopefully email will be more fruitful than the phone call!You could list yourself, but first, why don't you try emailing your question to the company and see if you get a timely response to a question about whether your involvement can be verified by anyone at headquarters.
Oh wow, shots fired at my tagline! I'm honored, @gonnif.No its those certified gunners I cant stand. Usually they are first for me to reject from the application pile
If you ever so happen to be looking at my application, I'll happily break that mold for ya Some of us really just genuinely love this whole process, and flourish in this environment in a way that leads to the "gunner" stats/EC's/whatever. I graduated with a 2.5 GPA from high school -- college and medicine turned me around.Most gunners are just 'droids with less personality
Where can I find the secondary essay prompts from last year? I have seen them before but now I can't find them.
Submitted my application today and it was verified in 30 minutes! Just to make sure, even though my status states "Application has been made available to the designated medical schools," it will not actually be sent to the schools until June 30th, correct?
Do LORs need to be assigned to schools prior to AMCAS primary submission, or is this something that can be changed after verification? I realize that AMCAS Letter Service is a separate entity, but I don't understand how one would go about assigning letters after submitting the primary.
Not sure if this matters too much, but what should I put for "Contact's title" when listing artistic endeavors? Is "Self" acceptable?
Thanks!
Oops, sorry! Thank you!I believe this is a @Catalystik question - in the future you can probably find some more help on this thread - *~*~*~*Official AMCAS Work/Activities Tips Thread 2017-2018*~*~*~*
Why's that?You can add before, during, or after. I advise students not to assign letters until you confirm them uploaded into AMCAS
The answer to that is a page or two back. The reason to wait until you confirm a letter is uploaded before assigning the letters to a specific school is to avoid the uneasy situation which often arises: You give Professor X's name to all your schools and it turns out Prof X is very late in writing your letter (or never gets around to it at all!) AMCAS won't proceed with transmitting your app to schools until they have all the letters you said you wanted included. So much safer to see what letters are truly available and select from these

bug in AMCAS; ignore it
I have a quick question regarding the course/work. When entering my classes for some reason after I save sometimes they don't save in a chronological order and they aren't listed in the exact order as the term. Is that a problem? I read on the AMCAS HELP section that it was a common mistake for returned applications.
Love you! Thanks <3AMCAS does not use college calculated GPA in any way, shape or form. Send in your transcript now
Hi everyone
I have a question about foreign education. I started my undegrad in Eastern Europe before moving to United States and getting a degree here. I understand that I dont have to request a transcript from my foreign university. I have some credits transfered to my American college. In my transcript, transfered credits marked as Elective, Gen ED, with a mark CR instead of the grade, however there is no further description. Do I put them the way they are as a part of my transcript?
Thank you a lot
Do I list all AP courses I've taken/were accepted or only AP courses that are contributing to my graduation requirements?
Also do I list upcoming courses for the following semester?
As the young jedi has learned well. If it is on your transcript as an AP, you must list on your AMCAS.
The exception to this is for transferred courses. You must list those only from the original college were you too the course
That is a common misnomer. The primary application is not used by AMCAS nor is it used by individual schools to check for prereqs. Most school do not, repeat, do not check for prerequisite fulfillment at time of application. Rather they are checked after you have taken up an offer of acceptance by a school during pre-matriculation. At that time you will be required to have all official transcripts sent to the specific medical school where it will be checked, among other things, for prerequisite fulfillment .
AMCAS has nothing to do with prereqs or such nor do are these checked during application at most schools. You should either list all the courses or not list any. If you are junior applying, adcoms would likely expect to see your senior courses listed.
Thank you! For the question 'were credits from X institution transferred to another institution', would I mark 'Yes', then put the institution to where the credit was transferred as my primary undergraduate college?You have to list it twice, but note transcript exception for postbacc as all courses are on one transcript
Oh, got it. Yes, it is listed on my UG transcript. I'll note it as transferred. Thanks!Lets clear this up. If it is on your UGs transcripts as transferred, then it was transferred. If not, then it isnt transferred. You have to read your transcript
Last second question - this may have been asked before but I don't even know what search terms to enter.
I am a non-trad student and have a somewhat complicated "Schools Attended" list situation. Since graduating several years ago, I've taken prereqs part-time at several schools. Currently I'm taking my final prereq (a lab course) at a school that I took prereqs at earlier, which I'm listing as a "current/future" course in the Course Work section. Basically I took the following:
Courses at School A - fall 2015
Courses at School B - spring and summer 2016
Final course again at School A - summer 2017
So my question is, in the Schools Attended section, do I list the start and end dates of attending School A as "fall 2015 - summer 2017," even though I actually didn't attend it at all in 2016 and this would overlap the dates when I was attending school B instead? Or should I list the school twice, once for year 2015 and again for my in-progress course for year 2017? Or should I just list the dates for School A to end in fall 2015, and ignore my in-progress course for the purposes of the Schools Attended section?
My apologies if this question has been asked before (I promise I searched). I own a photography business, which I have been managing since 2008. Do I just put myself as the contact for this? Is it an artistic endeavor or paid employment - non clinical? It's profitable, so it's not a hobby. I have considered putting the IRS down as the main contact...
Also, I created a design website as a kind of artistic hobby (I also make some money off it, but really just a few bucks a year). I was planning to list it as artistic endeavor. Or is it a hobby? It's kind of up in the air. It could also vaguely fall under paid employment, but that would be stretching it. Again, do I put myself as the main contact?
The rest of my experiences seem relatively straight forward.

For listing yourself as the contact: Perhaps, Musician, Artist in Training, Cellist, Poet, Film Writer, Novelist, Photographer, . . .. But you might also consider an old instructor, an agent, a co-member of a band, a publisher, etc, depending on what you're talking about.
Thanks! You mean list the old and current courses in the "Course Work" section, and it's just okay that they are overlapping in the "Schools Attended" section? I ask because there's really no way to give descriptions about specific semesters, or give any details about nuances at all, within the "Schools Attended" section.
