Hey guys
I have to make a four year plan and have no clue what many of these classes are and how they should be taken. I understand it is different everywhere, but I had some questions for general classes. For example, should microbiology be taken after ochem 2 or during ochem 2? Should Biochemistry be taken after microbio, during ochem? I tried talking to my advisor but she really had no interest in discussing my classes beyond next semester.
Also, is there a "competitive number" of credit hours taken per semester? My first two semesters I will have taken 17 and 16, should I be taking more or less or is this good? In other words, is a few semesters with 15 credit hours good as long as I'm taking challenging classes?

Thanks and sorry if some of my questions are a little redundant/no brainers/dumb

Dental schools don't care as long as your gpa is good. There's no preordained order to how classes should be taken (unless your classes have pre-requisites). Usually people tend to finish off the pre-dental required courses before delving into the higher division science courses such as microbio and biochemistry. Do remember that you will need 3 quarters or two semester credits of English/English comp (some schools will not accept "writing-intensive courses".

Stick to avg credits, and invest some of that other time into extracurricular if you need to. Balance is key
