Hey everyone! So, I'm in the application cycle right now and so far have 5 interviews out of the 8 schools I applied to. But, I'm in anatomy right now and it's a lot. I'm doing well and still have an A but things are getting real and I just want to enjoy my last year of college.

I've usually been in 17-18 credits each semester and have a >3.9 GPA and good DAT scores. Do you think schools would care if I made anatomy pass/fail?

Is anatomy a requirement for any of those 5 schools that you have an interview at? If it is a requirement, the school most likely requires a letter grade to be accepted.

I applied to Connecticut, Maryland, Virginia, Columbia, Penn, Temple, Colorado, and Harvard. I don't believe Anatomy is a pre-req.

P/F it then. No-one will mind.
If you seek further guarantee, call a few of the dental schools and just ask them.

Yeah definitely go through your schools and make sure it isn't a pre-req. If not, go ahead and P/F it. You already have interviews. I'm taking Histology and Anatomy P/F my last semester if I get accepted since I want some exposure but not a ridiculous challenge.
