sigh.. I'm in almost same situation as him.
I screwed up my first year in college;I got F on one engineering class and D on general chemistry 1 and 2
I just finished the first semester of junior year in university majoring in biomedical engineering(BME) and I'm getting around 3.48 GPA(3.20 GPA for AADASAS). I have retaken genchem 1&2 and got A on both of them and C for my freshman engineering class. Other than my first year, I have received almost all As with two Bs.
thanksfully, my DAT score is 24
and I have some shadowing & volunteer activity experiences.
the thing is... I have to apply to dental school for this summer if I want to get into dental school right after my graduation.
My school offers 5 year program of BS-MS program for biomedical engineering, which i believe I can get into.
Looking at other people's thread, it seems getting a masters degree will help me getting into dental school..... so Would you guys recommend me doing BS-MS program???
I mean..Do you guys think that I'll have any chance of getting ino dental school without getting MS degree?
Also.. will my undergraduate school's reputation affect my admission? I mean.. my school is notorious for having hard BME classes.
