hello,
as far as i know GPA reflects the grades that you have obtained during your dental education..so it's something done and over..you cannot improve your past grades..all you can do is to improve you nbdes or toefl or dental experience..lots of luck!

Hi everyone,
Are there any courses to do in the USA to improve ur overall GPA?? I have a terrible GPA and i like to know if this is possible...can someone answer me?? I would really appreciate your advices....🙂

hi,
about boosting ur GPA and trying to get into school, u can do either of 3 things
-Go to a college (no matter how small it could be a community college) and take the prerequisites that u would need for dental school; and make sure u do very well in these course - i'm talking about courses like physics, chemistry,hard core sciences etc; u know
-Another thing u could do is to look for a premedical postbaccaulerate program and apply - it takes anywhere from 1-2 yrs to complete and different schools have different criteria, so be sure to go to the schools website and check it out, make sure u meet the criteria before u apply. Most of these programs are associated with medical schools and u could either get a certificate or a masters out of it.
-Yet another thing u could do is do a masters in public health and while doing that u could take over ur prerequisites that u think need improvement and whichever ones that are missing in a college near u.

The most important thing is that u have to take the NBDE'S and do very well, research the schools that u would be applying to to make sure that they will be interested in a candidate like urself - so that u don't waste ur money. Usually these schools are school that take international students because such schools will be used to dealing with foreign credentials. Well I hope this helps and if u need anything else let me know. It might take a while but I'll reply ok? I'm always happy to help. Alright take care and good luck!
