I cant apply for D school for another few years because of my military requirements...so this means that I will most likely need to go into a masters program to prove my recent academic abilities as my BS will be 8 years old by the time Im applying. By some miracle I was selected for a masters program starting next year...
...however...
...I can not choose any masters program out there (ie - MS in Bio, the common fav on this forum). I will be in an MS of Environmental Engineering program (Uncle Sam has a lot of say in this). My BS is in engineering as well.
My question: will the fact that I am not in an MS in Bio (like everyone on this forum talks about) hurt me? Will I need to get out and get that second masters in bio to prove my ability with the sciences? Im already waaaaaaaay non-traditional as is and have PLENTY working against me...with acceptance rates to dental schools being a massive FOUR percent, every little bit counts.
Thanks a ton!
