my 1st year gpa was about 2.0
but i was able to raise my gpa to 2.6 by repeating failed classes.(biology 1,2🙁)
my overall gpa is now about 3.4 (got 3.8 in my 2nd and 3rd years and 3.9 last semester)
i'm doing some volunteer work and shadowed a dentist.
however,
since my gpa is not competative, I would apply to a dental school after i graduate (so i can have chance t raise my gpa)
my question is that..
what do you think about failing two pre-requisite classes?
even if i recieved A in my 2nd trial and did well in upper science classes...
would it be serious problem?

No, it's not a serious problem. Just make sure you retake and perform well in those classes. Good luck!

Own up to your mistakes. I'm sure when the schools interview you they will understand. The dental schools probably have seen a fair number of people who didn't have their head screwed on right in their first year. Repeating failed prerequisites is not that much of a problem since you learned your lesson rather quickly.
