Hey Guys,
I plan on applying to dental school this summer and I have a 3.5 gpa and a 3.36 science GPA. I got a C- in orgo and I never retook the class. I am not sure what to do should I retake the class? I am a chemistry major so I do have other science courses I did much better in like Bio Chem. I'm really lost any advice would be very helpful.

Most schools require a year of ochem with a C or higher. Look specifically into the admission requirements for the schools you'll be applying to, but you probably will have to retake.

If It helps I already took Ochem II and scored higher. Do you know any schools which accept C- as pre req?

I don't know how your school let you took OChem 2 without passing the first level first... All schools expect at least a C (a passing grade) in prereqs. Any school that requires OChem would not accept this

A c- is a passing grade at my school don't really know what school doesn't allow you to pass with a C-

Could I retake the class after I send in my application?

Yes

You would have to send all the dental schools you applied to an academic status update and they will ask for an official transcript before classes start. Good Luck.

Also, make sure to add it in AADSAS coursework section as a planned/in-progress/repeated course.
