Hi, I heard from someone that one of the ways to boost up my GPA is to take as many community college courses possible (and I guess, get better grades..). But I would like to know if this is a good idea. I don't even know how this gpa system works..so if you can answer some of these questions, I would really appreciate it.

1. Is this a good idea?

2. Would the admission board know/care a lot whether I got the credits from community colleges or my undergraduate school?

3. Do I take the courses in a community college during summer / and how do I enroll?

4. Is there a limit to how many classes I can take in CC, assuming that I took all the required classes at my own university?

5. If you have tried this way to get your gpa up, did it work for you in terms of getting in to a dental school?
