Hi all,

I’ve just submitted my Round 1 application, but I noticed shortly afterward that I entered the wrong starting month for a job. It should be December, but I mistakenly entered November.

  • 1st employment: Sep 2019 to Nov 2021
  • 2nd employment: Nov 2021 to present (This should be Dec, 3rd of Dec in exact)
The correct start date of my second job is accurately reflected in my resume as December 2021.
Would it be advisable to email the admissions committee to clarify this?

As it seems like a genuine/ minor oversight, there's not much to worry. To be on the safer side though, you could email AdCom clarifying this.

Hello moxnguyen,

Hope this finds you well.

This is not a huge error; often such mistakes may happen. Do not fret.

That said, it is a good idea to email the school with a clarification.

Good luck!
