Hey guys.. I've taken one Anatomy (3sh) and one Biochemistry (3sh) classes. Is this enough upper level courses to apply for dental schools?
Because I'm concerning to graduate next Spring, and just want to do more research in chemistry, I would be probably not going to take more upper level courses in next spring semester. Do you guys think that I need to take more upper level courses to get into dentisty?? I really don't think I have a time for more classes, and also I don't want to hurt my GPA.
 
You can probably get in without the upper level courses but you will be at a disadvantage in dental school. The upper level courses come in quite handy. Personally, I would lose the chemistry research and take some extra courses.

On the flip side, although not as useful (in my opinion), the research will make you better at conducting research and may prove useful for you in dental school if that sort of thing floats your boat...
 
I agree with Regmata. Although you probably have enough to get accepted into Dschool, you will definitely benefit by taking a couple more upper level courses if possible. I would strongly recommend taking a microbiology and/or a physiology course. Good luck.
