I'm a high school senior and i've decided that i'd major in education since i love to interact with children. However, in the past couple of days, it hit me that i should be a dentist. My family is barely keeping up with living, paycheck by paycheck. My sister had a long term dental disease that she kept a secret from us because of money and when she finally did go check it about four-five years afterward when she couldn't bare the pain anymore, it had cost our family more than what it should have when it first developed. My mom's teeth started to have spaces in between and she needs braces (i think) but because of our financial situation, she's refusing to receive any treatment. I've always had a passion for art as well, so i was thinking about double majoring in education and art, but now i feel like i want to be a dentist. Would i be in it for money? idk maybe, but i feel like i can be successful. Another problem is that i despise chemisty. I love biology, but not chemistry.
Please comment on my direction...i'm really lost at the moment.
Is becoming a dentist really hard even though i may feel really determined at the moment?
Would my chemisty hatred affect my path?
Is studying dentistry a sound job plan?
(I have 29 ACT and 3.66 unweighted GPA..college suggestions?)
And what is my chance at getting into University of Illinois in Chicago GPPA predental program?
