Hello everyone,
This is my first time on this forum and after searching around I thought I should just create a thread. I have just graduated from high school with grades which could be better, but I am satisfied with. I finished grades around 92 - 96% from all my sciences classes.
I have decided that I want to become a dentist. Not just a general dentist, but a specialist. I am not sure which one yet, but I am hoping you can all set me on the right path while I am still starting. I was hoping if any one of you could give me a guide or some tips as to what I should as I study to get my BS degree. Should I start shadowing dentists? What type of volunteer work or extra-circular activities should I be involved in? What are some tips to study so that I can achieve an exceptional GPA? What are you tips to manage your time? Anything else I should do ahead of time before I apply to dental school?
I guess besides the tips that you can all give me, I am mainly looking for an all-in-one guide to becoming a specialist in the dental field which starts all the way from beginning at my first year of university.
