Extra science classes

Hey everyone,
Has anyone ever taken extra science classes to boost their science GPA before graduating ? I just thought about that idea last week. Is that an ok think to do when applying to dental school?

Why not. It's better to fix your gpa now than later on.

I regret graduating before taking extra science classes.

Now I have to apply again as a non-seeking student and I won't even get the same loans or the same financial aid I could have gotten before graduation.

Also, when you gradate you can't register to classes early, so that is another bad point here.

I am trying to take more bio classes as my education wasn't focused on bio. Some of the classes are already closed.

My school is mostly pre-health students so anatomy and physiology courses are always closed after they open in a week or so.

If you don't graduate you can still continue to take classes as an enrolled student. This is much cheaper than if you were to graduate and take classes post-grad.

If this is a state school, I'd consider taking another 1 - 2 years (depending on how long you need) to take the courses at a fraction of the cost.
