Behold ladies and gentlemen, you are about to hear the most paranoid question ever posted in these holy forums.....

I applied to the typical range of H, S, C/B and K this round. and both my recommenders asked me to draft my recommendation before they polished it...

In my hurry, I framed them using same title say XYZ, and sent them. The recommenders are done submitting the online recommendations, and now I realize:

That in File->Properties, the Author field still bears my name....

Paranoia yes, but i am really afraid if all the two months of effort can be washed out in one single misstep.... Do applyyourself etc. also have analytics that collect these data to warn the adcoms early on?? Do AdComs actually care about checking these metadata just for the heck of it???

Does it really matter?

There are several students helped by consultants who make similar mistakes, but end up getting interview invitations.

Did you get an interview invitation to any of the said schools with such recos? because if you did, then I think the matter lays to rest.
