Does High School Info matter at all when applying to d-school?

Hi, I'm a student that didn't do that much work in high school (3.5 GPA 30 ACT) and turned it up to another level in undergrad, at least in freshman year (3.85+, I go to MSU). I was wondering if any top tier dental schools look at your high school information. I know being a freshman, GPA doesn't mean anything but I plan on working my tail off to maintain it. Thank you so much for your answers.

I'm pretty sure they don't look at high school at all. There may be some schools that are an exception to this rule, though I'm not sure. Your freshman year in undergrad WILL be reviewed in the selection process!

Not many schools look at it, but a few do. UCLA is one that I know requires your high school transcript.

i know harvard wants your HS transcript. i'm not sure if high school stuff are actually considered when accepting you or not thought. people change a lot from high school to college.
