I am a pre-med applying to medical schools. Last year, I was sick for some food poisoning and I guess when I was filling out a form, I checked some box I shouldn't have and apparently it said I had occassionaly done some pot.
I didn't know I put it until two months ago when my insurance application mentioned that it was in my history. Obviously it revealed a big WTF moment. I am not a pot smoker, and I am happy to be drug tested any time.
I am trying to get it sorted out with my insurance company that it was a mistake (since they denied me insurance because of that), etc, but I am not sure how that's going to go. I'm more worried about my future in medicine than insurance.
I have never obviously tested positive for marijuana nor have I ever been arrested/charged, etc with possession (because I've never possessed it).
When applying to med school, or matriculating, or for residency and licensing, will it be an issue?
