I'm a nurse wanting to go dental......I have a Bachelor's of Science in Nursing but dean told me that my nursing courses won't count........so that drops my hours down from 146 to 74 but brings my GPA up from 3.27 to 3.39. He told me that of course I need at least 90 credit hours to be considered for admission and to take some upper level bio classes. I need 8 hours of physics and 8 hours of organic to meet the minimum course requirements (and I would have 90 hours) though he said that they have never accepted anyone with just the bare minimum. So I need to take some more upper level bio classes for sure to be competitive.My science GPA is currently 3.19. I am taking organic 1 and physics 1 this summer. I plan to take the DAT in August. Applications for the school I'm shooting for go out Sept.1. I'm trying to get in fall 09'. I have been a registered nurse for nearly 2 years (June will be 2 years). I am worried about my GPA. I'm gonna go to school full time in fall 08' and spring 09' to take upper level bio classes. I'm taking three months off from work starting 2nd week of May so I can study more intensely for the DAT
plus summer school starts in June and I want to do well on my two classes. Right now I am working nights and try to do 4-5 hours of studying a day but when I take off in a few weeks I plan on 8-10 hours daily til summer school starts in June and re-vamp my schedule due to the two classes I'm taking.........Ok, do I have a chance with my GPA? I'm gonna try hard to get A's and B's in my classes this summer and in fall and spring. Any and all honest advice welcome.🙄
