So my major is Anthropology and I was ill advised at my CC. The health advisor told me not to take more than one science at a time because the most important thing was GPA... But every dental school I've spoken to is saying you need to show you can handle multiple labs at once. Sooo my second half at my 4 year has to be more rigorous or I won't get in anywhere.
If you take two sciences at a time is that enough?
How would you go about showing you could handle it without burning out?
I still have to find a way to get more hours for my dental experience section. I thought working as a DA part time would suffice but it's hard to find.
Thoughts?
 
I was a science major so I had 4-5 hard science classes at a time for all 4 years. I think if your major is anthropology all you need to do
is finish the prereqs right? (general chem, organic chem, physics, lower division biology courses) I think if you take only 2 per
quarter you should be able to cover these within 4 years since they are generally easier than upper division science classes.

Well I have to finish in two years because it's my second half already. I got my associates. So I was trying to figure out if this sounds not rigorous enough because I won't have as strong a hard science background as science majors will. 🙁
