Informal Post-bac issues

Have many people gone this route recently? Ive been hearing that its difficult to enroll in classes this method due to being last priority and budget cuts creating class shortages.

Specifically, how difficult would it be for me to enroll in the core bio, gchem and physics classes via informal post-bac?

what i did was search on the local CC and 4 year university and go everywhere, since they have different starting date. So if i couldnt enroll one, i would go to another. I would end up going to 2 different schools in one day, having morning and night class and it really burns you out just being stuck in the bus or in the traffic. This is the last method you want to do

i took all my courses at a cheap instate school. there is a slight benefit towards a formal program, but its not worth the cost. I just took all the necessary classes, made friends with the necessary profs, got good letters of rec, and built up my own EC's and Shadowing. Its like building your own car, its work and its harder than a formal program, but its a LOT cheaper and a lot better because you are fully in control.

I enrolled as an undergrad seeking a second degree (which I obviously won't be completing) and generally end up with a better registration date every semester than actual undergrad science majors I know. Had I enrolled as non-degree seeking graduate student, my registration dates would have been 5-6 weeks later and caused me a lot of problems.

Same route I took, and same outcome.

If you enroll for a second bachelor, wouldn't you need to spend another 2 years to get that degree? Or you plan on dropping (if it's possible) after you've taken all the required classes and raised GPA to a comfortable number?

it doesnt matter what you enroll in, as long as you take the necessary prereqs for dental school. one bachelors + necessary prereqs + dat are the only necessary requriements. no need to finish a 2nd bachelor (even if you start it.)

thats what i did in order to gain the cheapest tuition and register for classes as early as all other students.
