Anything is realistic. Get straight A's from now on for the rest of the prereqs and orgo. You can do it if you sacrifice your fun. Good luck.
 
you'll probably have to do a master's or post-bacc, but that's not too abnormal. I'd say just kill the DAT, keep your shadowing/volunteering hours high, and see what you look like after graduating. I think a lot of schools like the non-science majors that apply, it breaks the monotony of the biology major/chemistry minor applicant.
 
First off, I think it's important to remember that dental schools aren't going to be looking at your business GPA at all. They're basically going to just be looking at your overall GPA and your science GPA.

To answer your question about geoscience, it most likely will count towards your science GPA. If I were you, I would aim to get straight A's in the rest of my pre-reqs for dental school, do VERY well on your DAT, and beef up the qualitative aspects of your application. After completing your pre-reqs, if your science GPA is not at least a 3.0, I would consider a post-bacc/master's.
 
It’s never to late to improve. Even if it took you and extra year or two. If dentistry is something you want to persue, then you can do so with hard work and dedication. Good luck on Chem 2.
