I am currently in a senior in high school and will be attending a community college next year. My goal is to attend the USC school of dentistry. However, I do not want to spend 5 years finishing my biology degree. I had a meeting with a counselor at Pierce CC and he said that people rarely transfer to a 4 year university under a biology major in 2 years. There are just so many chemistry classes I have to take. I counted 6 (possibly 5 if I ace the assessment). And I have no problem taking more classes than full time (17 units instead of 12). The problem here is that each chem class is a prerequisite to the next so i cannot take more than one chem class per semester. What should I do? I only want to spend 2 years at a CC. Should i choose another major? If so, what would be good for dentistry? My plan is to become a dentist and hopefully within 8 years.
