[csudental]

Guys i need your advice which one is better to study abroad or doing a research instead or study ?
i'm actually afraid to take any courses abroad and dental schools doesn't accept it ?

Up to you...do what you feel would benefit you in the long run.

Perhaps it's a good thing that they may not accept those classes. But usually they should AS LONG AS those classes you might be taking are also approved by your university. Then I believe those classes will appear on your transcript, which AADSAS has to take into account when it computes grades.

On another note, it might be a good thing if your university doesn't accept the credits (and thereby the dental schools), ya know, in case you wanna have too much fun 😉

Like @fellowstudent92 said, as long as you take classes abroad that are accepted by your university, dental schools should have no problem taking them as well because they appear on your transcript. If you're really worried about this, though, call up the schools and check. 🙂

Otherwise doing research abroad can be fun too, if you know you'll still be able to graduate on time without those classes!

I'd vote research abroad, that way you can come back and say you did something concrete abroad rather than just 1 or 2 classes and a lot of partying.

Doesn't matter, do whatever you feel like doing. If the class is accepted and on your transcript from your school, dental schools will accept it.
