I was just wondering, was there an option on the application where I could have put my minor. I'm going to graduate with a psychology degree, but I really wanted to put in my application that I will also be getting a minor in biology. Is anyone out there have the same dilemma?
 
I don't recall seeing a section which allowed you to report your minor. Adcoms will see the plethora of science courses on your transcript and you can always tuck in a 'my minor in biology' in your essay or other places in the AADSAS application. Furthermore, you will also have an opportunity to list it on your secondary applications and, if you feel that it is really important (which I don't think it is crucial as dental schools are intersted in a variety of backgrounds and degrees - and I don't mean that as a put-down at all) you can bring it up in an interview.
 
I think that your minor will be evident when you send in your transcript, plus they will see that you have lots of biology courses. Plus, I do not think that they really care that much -- at least that fact wont have much influence whether you get accepted or not.

That is correct.
