I've already shadowed 2 dentists, but I only have about 40 hours worth. I plan on shadowing 60 more hours after my DAT is over with. However, on the AADSAS application...it asks me when I started shadowing. Can I put August 2011???....(I'm taking my DAT in August).
I don't want to lie on my application, but if I put August 2011 will that look bad, since its basically saying "I'm going to shadow more after I send my application out"??

Are you shadowing with the same dentists? If so, then just don't put an "end date"

You shouldn't put any projected shadowing down -- it's what you've shadowed up until you submit. Because what if you don't end up shadowing for reason, like a bed-ridden disease..then you've lied.
