I'm filling out the ADEA application right now and have a question about :
- Im in engineering major. Does all engineering classes count as "other science" or " non-science"
- I do not have that many shadowing and volunteer hours yet. Should I wait until a little later to fill out the application?
- Lastly, can i send in electronic transcripts or is it need to be mail in?

PLEASE HELP. THANK YOU SO MUCH GUYS

All of this information has been addressed on the ADEA AADSAS website if you looked carefully as well as in previous threads.

When classifying your courses, ADEA AADSAS provides a document that outlines which courses count as "science" and which count as "non-science". Use that to sort it out.
You can start filling out the application now but you should wait until you have shadowing hours before submitting. A lot of schools expect that applicants show interest in dentistry through shadowing/volunteering, or else they'll wonder where your motivation comes from and whether you're interested/prepared.
You must have a copy of your transcript mailed from your school(s) directly to ADEA. You can't send in any electronic copies unless that's something your school does, or submit them on your own. You can't mail a copy to yourself and then forward that copy to ADEA. For a transcript to be official, it must come straight from the university without any stops along the way.
