2 weeks' difference?

I had set up my goal to send out my AADSAS application on 6/14 since I will be graduating on 6/13 which means by 6/14 I will have my bach degree and a completed transcript (And it helps my GPA since I'm doing very well this quarter). What's bothering me is that the dentist I'm shadowing told me the other day that If the schools start accepting applications on 6/1, you send it out on 6/1, no matter what. If you didn't send it out that day your chance would be lowered significantly. (i'm fully aware that I can only access the transcript matching form on 6/1 so I should print it out and run to school's registrar to request my transcript?) But then applying 2 weeks earlier like this means my transcript won't include this quarter's grade. I'm confused now🙁 How different is applying on exactly 6/1 versus 2 weeks later...?

your fine, your dentist is wrong. 2 weeks later makes no difference at all. just apply before august to be safe. once you get into sept that is considered " late".

LMAO at highlighted part above.

I love our local dentists, but lets get something straight, some of them are clearly not admission experts. Does he even know AADSAS will use up a good 2-3 weeks verifying everything? that the first batch doesn't get sent out till late June? or that MOST dental schools don't start reviewing any applications till (the very earliest) July?

You are fine to apply on June 14, it will have no (as in "none") negative impact what-so-ever

It won't matter if your transcript now won't include all your grades because you must continue to update the schools that you applied to with new grades as the cycle continues. Therefore, if you are not taking any summer classes, I would save yourself the trouble and send your application in 6/14 when all your grades are in. Two weeks will not significantly hurt you lol....I don't know where your dentist got that from.. the key here is to get the application in early so you make december 1st rounds.

I feel like it's physically impossible to send out your AADSAS on June 1st because your school takes days to process your transcript request form before mailing it out.
