Calculus based physics for dental school

[vr2000]

I was wondering if Calculus-based physics was required as a prerequisite for any dental school applications. Would it be okay if I took algebra-based Physics? The professor I would like to take next semester is teaching the algebra-based course which would be ideal. Thanks so much in advance for any input.

calc based not required, algebra based is adequate

I took algebra based and had 4 interviews this cycle

Like others have said, algebra based is totally fine. But just make sure it’s adequate to complete any potential major requirements.

Don’t play yourself. Take regular algebra based

Take algebra-based unless the calculus-based one is easier at your school (which it was at one point at my school).

Yes, it is recommended to take the algebra/trig based physics unless you want to go into an engineering related area such as dental materials or research.
