hello,

For my school, most courses are worth 3 credits (3 hours/week). What is the minimum number of year I need to take each year in order to be eligible for dental school (private ones)?

Thanks!
 
Take as many as you feel you can do while maintaining a stellar GPA (over 3.6 if not better)... 👍

Take one year [sic] each year. ;p But seriously, the best thing to do is to look at the pre-reqs for the schools you're interested in and then plan out your schedule for your entire stay in college.
 
why dont you just take 3 science classes a year

ex: histo, biochem, micro

or ochem, bio One, and chem one

etc. and then add fluff classes till you get to 16 credits...


if you catered to all 10 schools you apply to your knees will get very sore if you know what i mean. Then get a's in all the classes (or darn close) and your as good as accepted.

This is a gaurantee from OBVIOUSGUY.
 
I was thinking to take 12 credit per semester which make up 24 credits per term. Is that consider full course load for US schools? I am asking b/c I don't know how course credits for US schools since I am a Canadian. Thanks!

Yes, that's full.
