Hi all,
What kinds of ECs are recommended for dental school? How many hours of shadowing (and how many types of dentists and specialists) would you recommend to shadow? How much specific dentistry exposure/clinical experience does an admissions committee like to see? Can we count general healthcare setting volunteer work (like a hospital)?
Also, how important is it to have completed all the pre-requisites prior to submitting the application? For example, if you are missing one or two courses, will a school admit you before the completion of those classes?
Thank you for any/all info.
