I was thinking about my schools pre-dent committee and wondering about the right time to face them. I am junior in undergrad. My GPA is 3.1 something. I will be volunteering and shadowing soon. And I havent take the DAT.
After reading horrible post by SDNers about their school committee. I am so worried now. I am worried that my schools pre-dent committee might try to be my obstacle toward my dream. I am so scared to face them. Some of the schools require LORs from science prof., but so far my science teachers were horrible. I cant ask them to write me one. My last science prof. makes students feel so bad whenever they go to him for questions. Imagine what he will do if I ask him to write me LOR, plus I found out that he is incharge of pre-dental committee !!!!!!! Thinking of this, just makes my heart crunch in pain !!!!!!!! Do we really need LOR from committee, even if we have one at our school? I am going through HELL already, now I have to face people who just might not want me to go to dent school because of some flaws in me. I am scared that they will tell me that I am not good enough.
What am I suppose to do? Whom should I go to? I don't know any professor well enough at the university.
Flaws in me:
I unfortunately dropped my first bio class ever taken at a university. I am transfer student. I dropped it because one of my family member was in ICU and I couldnt handle the class. It was too much for me at the time. I know it sounds like a stupid excuse. I should have kept it. Dent schools will look at me as a failure now. Something serious always happens in my life whenever I think it will stay stable for sometime!!
Other flaws: I spent 4 yrs. at community college, I am already 23 and by the time I graduate I will be 24 years OLD, and my gpa sucks. I know these arent some flaws.
