hello all,
I am new to this site, and I love this site because I find it brings alot into perspective for me.
I have big problems: I have completed my biology/chemistry curriculum in MAY 2011. My GPA was way way too low to enter dental school so I skipped the cycle to take additional courses to increase my gpa. well, I didnt perform well this past year, a 1.86 in the fall and so far I have a C+ and a D for the grades that just came out for spring 12.
Spring semester was intermediate biochem, advanced physiology, and developmental bio
fall semester was: intro biochem, pharmacology, analytical chem, cellular/molecular bio
My current overall gpa is 2.33. I need to jump at least a full point. advice??? and what kinds of "post bacc's" shiuld I look into? How long do these "post baccs" last? Must I complete an entire masters degree or is there a one year plan? thanks
Lastly
I may work too much. I pull at least 23-30 hrs of work/week. it hasnt been working but like many of you I only want to be a dentist. Like Im sure many of you, at least one parernt has grown impatient, my gf is impatient. Im in this to win, I believe in myself,and i know if you guys can do it so can I. Today is 5/3/2012 i have until 5/5/12 to tell the school registrar if I want to extend my undergrad stay or "graduate"
