Hey guys. I'm a little worried about my cumulative hours calculated by AADSAS. All my units are based on the quarter system and I specified this under my coursework. However, I took 18 units during one quarter, yet AADSAS calculates my hours as being 12.67 hours. It seems that the hours they calculated for each quarter are less than the units I took during the quarter. Just a little confused on how they calculate hours per quarter. Also, under prereq requirements for dental schools, alot of schools list "135 quarter hours, 90 semester hours" etc... I only have 123 cumulative hours according to AADSAS. Does this mean I do not meet the pre-req requirements for such schools that require >130 quarter hours? Or has AADSAS converted it into semester hours already and I have 123 semester hours? Any clarification would be appreciated. I'm sorry if this is confusing...

18 quarter units = 12 semester units
I don't know where they got the number 12.67 from.
