Hi guys I have a quick question that some of you might be able to answer. I have gotten into Midwestern, but will not be able to finish all the required courses in time since I am working on bio B.S. How likely is it that they will waive those requirements? I have all the standard dental school courses (bio, chem, ochem, biochem, calculus, physics, english), but as you probably know, Midwestern has 18 units worth of extra requirements (anatomy, microbio, physiology). So, do you think I still have a shot? Has anyone been in a similar situation? Thanks.

I've talked to a lot of other people in the same situation (I'm in it, too). Midwestern doesn't waive pre req's... but I would call the school anyway, just to double check.
