are you talking about the under grad anatomy?
i really hope not, because under grad anatomy is a joke compared to what you'll have in dental school.

no fool. .. . i'm talking about dental school anatomy. it's sucks major butthole, and i'm glad it's over.....=). the bodies stink like ass especially towards the end. and you will be pissed at how much info they throw at you every day. up next, dental morphology, nutrition, and biochem. can anyone tell me what they thought about these classes?

Tooth morph = Can be frustrating in the lab, since it's a lot of folks' first exposure to precision hand skills. Easy lecture.
Biochem = I thought it was easy, a lot of rehash from undergrad (although faster & more furious), but irritating because there's not much correlation to clinical dentistry/medicine.
We never had a dedicated nutrition class.

glad that anatomy is over for you. imagine taking anatomy, tooth morph, molecular cell bio, and PBL at the same time. lol

Yeah, probably. Most dental schools have pretty tough curricula. Well, except for the Illinois ones, now that I think about it. I hear only the wusses apply there.Zurik5 said:I'm sure his schedule is pretty taxing as well

You know, I've heard this too. I also heard that they score all the model-type women who frequent the clinics.

swiminh2o,
Undergrad anatomy-if you took it at the Y-was likely as tough (or more so than) what you'll see dental school...maybe not as detailed in the head & neck, but tougher. Epecially if you had Busath. Heckman's histo is more detailed than dental school; Porter's physiology is the exact same thing he taught when teaching medical & dental school in Kentucky; Bradshaw and cell bio was far-and-away harder than any class you'll ever have at dental school. You'll agree in two years. So if you had any of those, you'll be fine, or at least that's a common consensus from about 10 people I keep in touch with who've had them and are now at schools like: UNC, UConn, UCLA, Harvard, OSU, UTSA, UK, Colorado, UW...and so on. You'll do fine. Just keep your priorities in order and it'll be fine.
