I had to withdraw 2 springs ago because my dad's health was in very poor condition. Since then hes been much better! However, I needed to withdraw from the semester, being the eldest child in the family and having to work for a bit. Also, nobody home besides me was a driver so I drove brothers and sisters to school and back, did grocery, etc. How would dental schools view my situation? Since then, I ended up taking 2 of those classes from that semester and did great on both. Any insight would be appreciated!
 
They don't mind, as far as I can tell. I also had to withdraw from quite a few classes (including an entire semester) and I have three interviews thus far.
 
So as long as you have an explanation, they will still give you a chance.
