hi everyone, im an undergrad at an ivy league school going to my third year now, i really want to go on to dentistry but i messed up pretty bad in the last 2 years , i got a few(F)s and some bad grades (i had moved to a new country and it was my first time studying in english).right now my gpa is below 2.4 and im really stuck!..i cant study the major that i want because my gpa doesn't meet the criteria,, i really need a new start..do u all think i should transfer or start over doing pre-health in some community college or lower-rate university or finish any degree from the university that i'm in right now( i already finished 2 years) and start over after i graduate( masters or maybe another 4 years of undergrad)😕..i'm trying my best but i think its pretty much impossible to lift my gpa to dental school standards after the past 2 years..im really lost..please ,does any 1 have any advise?what should i do now?🙁
 
I dont know if its the best advice or not, But personally I would go to a CC take all my GE's(no science or prereq's) transfer to a 4-year and have an amazing GPA. But raising your GPA from 2.x to above or around 3.5 is alot harder than starting over, just my opinion.
