I have always want to be a dentist since high school. So I went to college, intending to major in Biology. I wanted to graduate in 4 years so I instead, minor in Biology and major in general studies. This I think was a mistake.
I graduated undergrad in 2013. My overall GPA was a mere 3.0 and I need a better GPA to be competitive in my application. So I decided to go into grad school. I am a current grad school student in Education- Secondary Biology (good job market, maybe) while still trying to strengthen my record for my dental application. I plan to take more of their required classes, specifically biochem on my semester off from grad school. The advising people say I can not take any more biology courses at the institution because I am in their masters program. They recommend that I take my science class at the community college. I already took enough credits at the community college that is acceptable. The adviser said that it is odd that I plan to go into dental school but is mastering in Education, and that the dental school would question that.. . This is very uninspiring
I have a mortgage to pay and am getting pay to teach, thats why i chose my master program. I feel like one day i will be happy not pushing dental school and wasting my time. im 25. I dont want to pursue something I cant obtain forever.
