Has anyone (Canadians in particular) been accepted into a US dental school with, for example, 6 credit hours of inorganic chem where the school admission requirements on the website indicate 8 hours are expected.

My pre-requisite course credits are from the Canadian system, where a 1st year (September-May), trimester course in inorganic or biology is supposedly equivalent to 6 credit hours. I am concerned about whether the schools will require me to take more credits hours to fulfill the remaining 2 hours per required course. Thanks,
Cy
