Tell us more about why you need a predental postbac.

I want to apply to dental school but my undergraduate gpa is 3.29 so I am considering the option of post bacc to boost up my gpa.

What "recommended" courses do you need to take? You are in the gray zone for an SMP for me, and there aren't many predental-specific SMPs out there.

As I had asked, what courses do you have left to take? That will help me make a clearer call.

1) Why are you interested in doing a Post bacc over a Masters?
2) Also is it connected to the University of Michigan's dental school?
3) What % of the people who do this Post Bacc get accepted into dental school the following year?
4) Have you looked at other post bacc or master's programs?
5) Have you taken the DAT yet?

My criteria for a Post-bacc/master's program are:
1) % chance of it getting into dental school (some are guaranteed acceptances depending on how you preform in the program)
2) Cost of both the PB/Master's AND cost of the dental school associated w/the program (have to look at both combined)
3) Location - make sure it is in a location you would want to live for 4/5 years & hopefully the program would be connected to your #1 choice for dental school as well.

I would maybe consider contacted Michigan's dental school advisors and see if they recommend a program for you at the UofM. Than connect the director of the program and see the success rate of getting into dental school based on that program
