Of school that require recommendation letters from 2 science professors, are they strict about it, or is it something they let slide as long as you have the required number of letters? I have 3 letters submitted but only 1 is from a science professor. I have 2 other science professors that wrote letters for me but they seem to not answer their emails and haven't uploaded it to interfolio.

Can you clarify of what you mean by 3 submitted? Do you mean that all 3 are science professors who you requested but only 1 submitted on interfolio?

Or do you mean that you didn't wait and chose 2 other non science professors along with the 1 science professor?
 
I have 3 submitted to interfolio and AADSAS. I have 1 from a dentist, 1 from a science professor, and 1 from a doctor I work with at Urgent Care. I just need 1 of the 2 science professors to upload the letter but it hasn't happened yet.

Yes what he said. Email them and remind them you need it in as soon as possible.

But also don't make them feel forced or like they own you something. You want a good LOR, not a weak one. Go to their office hrs and ask.
