I have been thinking about this for a long time and havent been able to really come up with a satisfactory answer. Im sure many of you may be in the same situation. Is is really worth paying so much freakin money to an expensive dental school?? I mean dental schools are accredited for a reason right... what truly makes a 200k plus school superior to an in state dental school (~50k in my case). Personally I would love to graduate dental school with little to no debt and start making some serious income but am I sacrificing something for it?? For me I am struggling to decide between the Medical College of Georgia which is a respectable dental school with an extensive SE contact network and other much more expensive private schools (ie, Pacific etc). My DAT scores, gpa, and extra curriculars should give me a good chance of getting in alot of the privates but maybe I should stick with the instate MCG deal. what do you guys think? any and all opinions are welcome... Thanks guys!!!

The cost of tuition has no correlation to the quality of education. If you plan on working near Georgia, stay there for the contacts. The only thing price of tuition has to do with is whether they are private or not. Good luck.
