here are the 3 ideas I have:
At first I was enjoying the idea of doing a masters in genetic counseling where I could drop halfway through if I get into dental school, or if I can't get into dental school through the whole 2 years I can simply become a genetic counselor. But the more I think about it the more unsure I am as I'm afraid that the classes in genetics would be far more difficult than just doing a post-bacc as I am not that great at genetics.
For a post-bacc I am afraid that if I still don't get into dental school I'll be left holding a bag of extra college credits and degrees that won't mean too much. With a similar problem in a masters program of arts in biology.
What are your thoughts? I want to go into dental school but I want to do it in the most efficient way possible, as in the sooner and cheaper the better.
- Try post-bacc
- try masters of arts in biology ( 1 year program)
- try a masters in genetic counseling (2 years)
- maybe some other master's program
