Is there any chance of getting accepted to any dental school after getting kicked out due to poor grades?
This person started dental school right after 4 years of undergrad (biology) with average GPA/DAT. (while already having experience from working/shadowing at dental offices/labs.)
Their hand skills were excellent and they aced every lab classes. They failed one major non-lab class (even after remediation) and were dismissed from the school.
Curious to what admissions officers think about students like this re-applying to dental schools (not the same school they failed from).

- What is the minimum/maximum years one can/should wait after failing out of dental school to re-apply to other school again? (how about re-applying to med-schools/pharm schools?)
- Also, what should they be doing during this time off from school?
- Would dental schools accept the old undergrad grades and GPA? What about the old recommendation letters from undergrad teachers?
