- It labels 2.5 × 3.5 inches, 375 × 525 pixels, and 150 DPI as legacy figures, not current AAMC requirements.
Field notes
After an image is selected, the browser reads its pixel data and file metadata locally. The page says the current AAMC listing specifies file format, a 150 KB maximum, and a centered face, while pixel dimensions and DPI are absent from that listing; the older 2.5 × 3.5-inch and 150-DPI figures are presented as legacy references. Visual checks are described as review prompts rather than acceptance decisions.
