Well I got my first set of B's in A+P II for the lab and lecture. I missed an A by 1 point in lab and 8 points in the lecture. I am pissed cause its my first B I have gotten in my science classes. Oh well I guess I should have figured I would'nt get straight A's all the way through and then apply for dental school. 🙁

Go back to room and study so more.. With that attitude your never going to get into dental school. :laugh:
 
BOOOHOOO, Cry me a river. TROLLLLL What are you? a Freshman?
 
actually, an A- means bye bye to a 4.0. Well at my school at least.
 
wtf.. I am sorry but you have to realize you shouldn't continue trying for dental school because as you know only students that have straight A's get accepted. See when I applied to VCU I had 2 B+, they said I had to retake the courses and get A's in them b4 they let me interview. So if I were you, I would call/e-mail/meet your dean and beg him/her to retake the courses because with anything less than A Dental schools WILL NOT grant you an interview!

Nope, he's definitely not joking. If you don't have straight A's you pretty much have very little chance. Unless...and this is your one and only possibility...you get 28's or higher on all sections of the DAT. I know...because I was rejected with one B+ and 27's across the board on my DAT.

well, i would be worried too if I lost a 4.0 GPA and had no personality to compensate for it 🙁
 
I think a lot of us have been in that position before, you just get freaked out with a B. But believe it or not, a B is a decent grade, especially for a science class at most universities. I wouldn't stress too much, don't let it offset your future 3.9.

what school are we talking about again, ..cause i see people on here all the time who get accepted and their GPA's range from 3.0 to 4.0.
 
well depends, if ur a junior and u just got a B, id say that sucks big time, but if ur a freshman and u just got a B, then i laugh at u
 
I not crying just thought I would express how bad that it sucks to have straight A's and then lose it for 8 stupid points. All you all saying Im whining can #$%#$ off. Anyway I m not worried about the B keeping me back from dental school. It was just my own personal pride blown away other than that a b is a b and its not that damn bad.
 
i would totally go to the prof. and explain that your a pre-dent and pre-dents don't get Bs.
if that doesnt work i would trash his computer +pissed+ lol

Sounds like someone I know. T is that you? stupid Faack!! Those people think we care if they got an A+++ or Z-. Pathetic indeed. I bet he will not sleep for a few months before he gets over it. Save you from all this and see if you can stop a bus going at 70mph with one hand to get your mind off of it. :laugh:
 
Is this the most ******ed and pointless thread or what? Its probably gonna give many newcomers to SDN and new predentals a totally wrong impression of d-school expectations. But whatever...please continue.
 
OMG, man you seriously need to just drop the semester RIGHT NOW IF YOU CAN. WOW HAHAHAH sucks and

pity.gif
 
MCSHOW2 gets an F for reading this entire thread.

... and an F- for adding an additional post.
 
seriously, no one gives a crap if you got a 4.0 or a 3.0 in undergrad. once you get into dental school, none of that is gonna matter one single bit.
 
I've had a 4.0 since kindergarten, so I can't imagine how you feel dude.
 
i feel y'alls pain man (or mens). up until today i had this sweet temporary tatoo on my left butt cheek and then i took a shower and it washed off. i feel cheated and robbed of life itself.

You'll be just fine. In the long run that B matters to noone but yourself. 😉
