<p>I'm a premed student and I'm planning to apply to Med school the summer of 2012. So I was thinking of the fact that all med-school wants students to send transcripts from all of the schools that they've attend. This is the scary part, a couple of year ago, I took 2 Chem classes at Stanford over the summer of my senior year in high school. YES, Stanford, and I was completely unprepared and shocked, therefore I earned really bad grades, meaning 2 d's..
But then I retook the class at a later time at a junior college, at least I think it's the same class, and got an A in both of them.</p>
<p>So now I want to ask my pre-med advisor about whether or not I should send the transcript from Stanford when I apply to med-school. However, I realized that I did not send the transcript to the school that I'm currently attending. What should I do??????</p>
<p>Doesn’t matter that you didn’t send them to your current school. Like norcalguy already said, you’re going to have to send every transcript from every college ever attended.</p>
<p>College credit for calculus that you took in high school, with credit from a different university than you attend? Send the transcript.</p>
<p>Summer credit for a random prereq from a local community college? Send the transcript.</p>
<p>All the classes you’ve ever taken from your current university? Send the transcript.</p>
<p>Credit for studying abroad that you got from some random but accredited university overseas? Send the transcript.</p>
<p>You should get the gist by now. If it’s a grade that you earned, or there’s a record of a class that you took, AMCAS will get it. And furthermore, it will all be factored into your AMCAS GPA–which is part of the reason why your AMCAS GPA and your university GPA may differ slightly.</p>
<p>Also, if I tell my current college advisor that I did not send that transcript to the current college I’m attending, what would be the consequences?</p>
<p>mmmm does your college require that you send all previous transcripts to it before transferring? I can only imagine that it does. Would you have been rejected had you disclosed the Ds from the community college? That could cause some problems.</p>
<p>I have no idea how your university would handle this, but I bet there will be some repercussions. Schools generally frown upon academic dishonesty, which is essentially what occurred here. Good luck!</p>
<p>It was D’s from Stanford, that I didn’t transfer. I thought that I shouldn’t transfer it since I retook it at a Community College and got A’s in it.</p>
<p>Ahh, I forgot that detail. A complicated situation for sure. But I could see them asking you, if you knew that the As should theoretically replace the Ds, why hide the Ds in the first place?</p>
<p>Hmmmm, I see what you mean… I guess I wasn’t really trying to hide them per say. I thought that it was just unnecessary to send both transcripts with the same classes… =( and now I’m in a big mess, sigh…
I’ll be sure to send them to Med-school though, I’m sure my grades now will make up for it… Thank you for your help…</p>
<p>Wait, we even have to send stuff from high school? Sweet! I took some college classes at a college over the summer when I was in high school as part of a program I was accepted to. Does this count? Also, I took Geology and made an A in it – does this count towards science GPA? That would be sweet.</p>
