Would it be wise to take those two sciences together? I received A's in Organic if that means anything.

Why? Because you think it will be hard?

I'm trying see what I'm getting myself into with those two particular courses. Hearing people's experiences would be beneficial.

It would be nice to be able to iron out a few things in regards to the DAT during the semester too. Obviously the semester/gpa comes first. Thats why I'm asking.

It's doable.

Two science courses in one semester is def doable. Last sem I took Bio, Organic Chem II, and Physics II plus 2 gen-ed classes and managed to do A in all classes. Took a lot of time and effort though... i barely had any free time during the week to do anything fun but i was still able to hang out on the wkends.

You need to get used to taking a lot of science courses because in dental schools all your classes will be science related courses; if you can't handle it in undergrad, what makes you think you'll be able to do it in d school?

No lab. means more free time. A&p and biochem will help you for the dat. more science classes can only help 😉

But you have a pretty nice semester its completely doable and you will get a nice semester gpa with some effort. You will have plenty of free time tho.
