Hey everyone!
I am currently an undergrad, a first year, and I plan to graduate with a bachelors in dental hygiene and would like to work for a year while studying for DAT's and then plan to apply to harvard school of dental medicine. I really am determined to go to Harvard as I've been told it is the school to go to if you want to be involved in research, which is what my ultimate goal is. Is there more of a chance at getting into HSDM since I am going the dental hygiene route first? Also what sort of volunteer work should I do? I already have 5 years of experience as a dental assistant and have excellent/reliable references from my current place of work (dental office). If anybody has any advice for me or anything I should or shouldn't do I really would love to hear from you! I also am not sure if I should take my DAT's immediately after college or study for it while working post rdh degree.
I currently have a 3.77 GPA I'm not sure yet what science GPA is.
