I am worried because it science is my weakest subject. It seems no matter how hard I try, I always end up with C/B science grades. I try not to let this discourage me, but will I do in Dental School (assuming I even make it) if I struggle now with science?
 
Depends what kinds of science. If it's physics and chemistry you're struggling in, you might have to put in a lot of work and be satisfied with middling grades in courses like dental materials and biochemistry, but you'll be fine elsewhere if you're good at biology and possess the manual dexterity. If you aren't good with your hands and/or your weaknesses include biology, dental school might be a much more difficult prospect than it'd ordinarily be. Good luck deciding! 😀
