If you apply for a specialty program (ortho, OMFS, etc.), does it make a difference if you have a BA or BS, as long as you have a DDS or DMD? The reason I ask is because some accelerated programs only award a DDS or DMD with no bachelor's (particularly UoP's 2+3 program). The only reason I would pursue a bachelor's is if it makes a difference in the specialty application process. If it doesn't, I see no reason why a bachelor's would serve any purpose.
