I have just graduated undergrad and have applied to dental school. I was super late in have a complete application, so I haven't heard anything back thus admission isn't looking too hot right now. I was wondering what your opinions were on what to do this next year. I currently work full time between a general dentist office and a separate endodontic office. Should I go to hygiene school? Get my masters in public health? Continue to work? Other ideas? Ultimately, I still want to go to dental school and will continue to apply each year until I get in. What do you guys think?
