Im a business major taking the requirements for dental school admission. I had a really hard time with bio and chem and struggled through it. I even resorted to cheating to get though the exam. I was never good in the sciences even though i tried my best. I feel that if i cant handle these courses then how the hell am i gonna survive dental school. It sux becasue i love the actual dental part of everything and loved watching the dentist i observed but the schooling to get to that is more than i can handle. wat do u think.. am i in over my head? did any of you ever feel this way?

Well... I will say that I'm not the best in biology either. I was not a science major and took the requirements. However, you should know that dentistry is certainly very science-based. As school progresses, it does become much more clinical. Yet, if you've had that much trouble, you might want to think about another field. Everyone has his or her different strengths. Good luck.
 
Go into business---were cheating is an art form and biology and chemistry are terms used at the lunch table to help explain office dating. 😉
