damn okay..
Sorry if that came off as rude!
Many schools don't "require" it, however they heavily "recommend" it.
I think I can generalize a bit here, if a school requires biochemistry, chances are they are going to require microbiology as well.

Aren't they the classes that dental students take during their 1st year? I think they want to know if you can survive well during the first yr.

If he is really serious about applying to all of those schools, then if only 1 school requires biochem... it pretty much takes care of all the others. Just go ahead and take it, it will make your life easier when you take it in dental school. 🙂
yep I've heard the same exact thing from a few dental schools I called up. They REALLY like to see students take on upper level sciences and doing well in them. They all said that it gives them an indication of how you'll deal with first year classes.
