what are some good extracurriculars to do to get into dental school?

like basic research, volunteering at soup kitchens, etc.? are there any specific "dental" things I can do?
 
work at the dental school, volunteer/assist/work in a dental office or free clinic, predent club, dental mission trips, dental research in dental school....there are plenty of ways to get into it.
 
or, your mom's a dentist so you've been extracting teeth since you were three years old - she'd put the patients out and you'd do the procedure. offer to demonstrate your skills personally on the interviewer. 😀

sorry. am currently suffering from pre-traumatic stress disorder.

Are you a bruin? If so, there's this new pre-dental program that sounds pretty cool. I also helped create a dental clinic at a homeless shelter. So if you're interested in learning more, PM me.
