    Does Dental Hygiene classes count towards your AADSAS science GPA?

    Not sure about AADSAS, but TMDSAS counted my DH classes such as head and neck anatomy, histology, pharm, dental anatomy etc.. (from 4 year univ) toward my science GPA.

    OK, just to clarify for anyone else who may be wondering....

    I just called AADSAS and they said that Dental Hygiene classes do count towards the sGPA and that the application will be available the first week of June this year....

    BCP classes are counted as science and DH classes are counted as other science. However, per AADSAS if the DH class description can be justified to fit into BCP then you can submit it that way (eg H & N anatomy can be considered BIO even though it is a DH class).
