I had a question about the guidelines for holding spots. This is just something I noticed:

AADSAS participating schools report to AADSAS by May 1 the names and AADSAS ID numbers of candidates holding positions; after May 5, AADSAS reports to each dental school the names of their candidates who are holding more than one position at dental schools; schools may rescind offers of admission to such candidates after allowing 15-day response period.

Does this mean that after May 5th, if you hold more than one spot, you can automatically lose the spot? Is the school just going to say 'sorry, no spot for you' or will they force you to make a decision at this point.

Technically, they could do whatever they want to do.
But I would imagine it would be to force you to make a decision (at least at the majority of schools.. like accept or reject them in X amount of days or they will rescind the offer).
Regardless of their system, why would you hold multiple seats and waste thousands of dollars. Someone needs your spot so just choose 🙂
