I recently graduated high school and I'm planning on attending a community college before eventually going to a four year university. I was planning on doing the biology major while completing the long certificate program in dental assisting that the school offers. However, when I spoke to an advisor, I was informed that doing that might put me a year and a half behind. Would it be worth it to complete both in order to become a CDA and better my chances at getting into dental school? The school also offers an associate's in dental hygiene, would that be a better option?
