Hey all,
I have a couple of questions for you and was hoping you could help.
I am a Freshman in college now about to complete my spring semester, and I am extremely interested in applying to dental school at the end of my four years. However, I got off to a rough start in my fall semester and left with a 2.0GPA. I have heard from some people and they say that it is hard to pull low GPA's up past the 3.0 point by the time one graduates. This worries me because I know that many dental schools require a 3.2-3.3. Have I completley blown my chances of dental school already, or can it be pulled up? Also, will dental schools even consider someone that isn't in the 3's (maybe 2.8-2.9?)? This has been in the back of my mind my entire freshman year.
Thanks a lot!
