As far as science pre-reqs go I have taken Gen Bio 1&2, Gen Chem 1&2, Microbiology, Physiology. I obviously still need Physics 1&2, Orgo 1&2, and plan on taking Anatomy and Biochem. My science GPA is not the greatest right now, probaly around 2.90-3.00 range. So my question is if I do good in these remaining classes, is it enought to pull it up? Is there certain other classes I should take? or retake a class I didnt do well in?
 
I would agree that you need to do really well in the remaining classes which is easier said than done. Plus you need to do really well on the DAT. If you really want to get into dental school you'll be able to do better in the remaining classes. You're not out yet. Just work hard and it can happen. Good luck!
 
I'm gonna be graduating with ~2.98 sci gpa most likely. I've been accepted to a school and have had 2 interview invites. You can still get into a dental school with a lowish GPA but everything else on your application must be outstanding in my opinion. Try to get A's in your remaining science classes if you can and rock the DAT.

Good luck!
 
hardline, which schools did you apply to and which one are you attending?
 
Creighton acceptance. Have an interview at my state school UW in a couple days. Declined interview at Western U.
