hi, I am a senior and I do want to apply to dental school 2007 cycle and hopefully begin dental school 2008 sep.
I will be done with my low division bio (genetic, biochem, molecular bio)and organic chem w/ labs by jun 07. However by this time, I will have only ONE BIO LAB done.
and I will be taking yr series physics1A-B-C w/ labs during the summer thru study abroad at the University of Sussex, UK and finish all my upper division bio courses (probably Cellular bio, developmental bio, and physiology with 3 or 4 BIO LABS )in 2007 - 08.

Do you think it is possible to apply next year 2007 even tho I have only one bio lab done? and when do you think is the best time to take DAT for me?
any advise????

thanks!
 
You need some time to study DAT, shadow a dentist and do extraculicular activity as well.
 
by the time i sent my application

i'm will have 3 ochem, 3 gchem, 1 yr bio, genetic, biochem, micro

and i haven't taken any bio lab due to my freaking school system
(2 quater bio -> genetics -> biochem -> micro -> upper writing -> labs)

and i'm econ major so i might end up taking labs near by community college
which offers lab regardles order..
 
you need to look at your situation like this...are you going to have time to study for and take the DAT, are you going to have all your letters or rec. are you going to have the time to apply( finish all the essays etc..) you also need to have most if not all the pre reqs done near the time you apply...you need to start planning now how you are going to do all of this
