Hello everyone, this has been killing me for a while and i am stressing a lot on this. Basically, I want to apply for fall 2011 and I havent taken biochemistry, I could not take it this semester because only the second semester was offered and I may not be able to take it next semester because it is at the same time as my ecology class (needed for bachelor). I thought about asking the professors if they would let me take their class although i would have to leave biochemistry lab early by about an hour and a half and from what i have heard biochemistry labs take a long time and it is not guaranteed that they would let me do it. Spring 2011 is out of the question because my school will only offer biochemistry semester 2. Basically, is biochemistry very important to get into dental school? my grades are average (3.5 gpa 3.35 science) and i plan on DESTROYING the DAT. Aside from that, my dad is a dentist and owns his own practice, i have been working with him for a couple years on and off, and it never occurred to me that I need a LOR from a dentist. If i submit a LOR by my dad, would that be frowned upon? would my shadowing hours and LOR by my dad be null simply because he is family? Anyways, thanks to anyone that reads this, i really need some good news for relief.
