Hi all! So I've been busy filling out applications and stuff but I've noticed a huge thing that I still haven't really found the answers to...

What exactly is the difference between a Masters program and Post-Baccalaureate Program? Is a masters program considered a post-bacc? Are post-bacs only certificates or can it also be masters? Is there a huge difference when being considered by an admissions committee (dental, in my case)? What exactly do you DO in a masters program??

Thanks in advance ): I'm getting super stressed out about this!!
