I only have room for one in my schedule. Which is more relevant for dental school?

immunology

Definitely take immunology. I like both subjects, but immunology was probably my favorite class.

I took both senior year of college, take immunology-- probably more relevant and much more exciting and interesting than genetics

Aw everyone voted for immuno. I vote for genetics specifically molecular genetics. Loved it!

 

[supermax]

Both

immunology. Better have exposure to immunology than genetics.

molecular genetics would be good to take as opposed to "regular" genetics, and probably more useful than immuno, but ideally you would take both molecular and immuno. If the choice is between immuno and "regular" genetics, then immuno all the way.

It's a 3000 level General Genetics which is a pre-req for Molecular Genetics at my school.

you will take immuno in dental school

you will not take genetics (per say) in DS ~ however, biochemistry does touch into a little bit of genetics and genetic disorders. But you don't need undergrad level genetics to handle it.

IMO, you should take immuno.

Depends on the school; Columbia takes genetics.

Take Immuno

Genetics if you are planning to take the DAT soon. Immuno for dental schools. If you like watching war movies you will like immuno.

I've already been accepted so I'm not studying for the DAT ... I worked it out so I could take both.
