Applying this cycle without having taken Physics yet?

I will have had gen. chem, biology, and organic chemistry completed by application time this August, as well as Precalc, Psych-Stats, and Calc I - but a year of physics is missing since I'll be taking it in senior year.

Would it hinder my application negatively?

I didn't take Physics until Fall 2013 and this Spring. 6 interviews and 4 December acceptances.

Thought I'd post this in this thread since it's somewhat related before I start my own.

If you've already graduated, without one of the pre-reqs... can you apply without it, and then take the required prereq in the summer IF you get accepted? Or does adcom need to know you're signed up for the course when you apply?

Cheers

Did you take any upper electives before applying? Because that's another ordeal that's worrying me, I have yet to take Biochemistry and microbio or something upper level bio (planning on doing it senior year with physics) Also if you don't mind me asking... what were your stats?

It's likely that they would be okay with it as long as you do complete it before dental school's beginning
