I just finished my first year at a top law school with bad grades (2.55). Job prospects do not look good and I'm not sure if I want to be a lawyer so I am considering dental school because I have always been interested in dentistry.
However, I have a liberal arts undergrad major so I didn't take any science courses. Would going back to college and taking the science prereqs that I need put me at a disadvantage when it comes to dental school admissions? How would the fact that I dropped out of law school affect my chances?
And I know that many dental school like to see higher level science classes in addition to the required ones. Approximately how long would it take to take the required science classes and some extra ones?
I was able to finish college in 3.5 years by taking extra classes each semester but is that sort of thing possible with science classes and their lab requirements? I would like to get a sense of how long it would take me to be ready to apply to dental school.
Thanks!
