<p>Hi, i am a junior in high school right now and i am VERY interested in becoming a dentist. however, my grades are not amazing.</p>

<p>GPA: 3.66 (all advanced classes, top public school)
SAT: 1290 (composite ... will be taking again in Dec. + NEW SAT)
- Will take 6-7 APs by graduation
SAT IIs: To be taken</p>

<p>ECs:
President of Medical Explorers
President Of Italian Club
Vice president of the Community Actions Commitee
National Honor Society
Layout Editor of the Yearbook</p>

<p>Varsity Fencing Team For 4 years (Captain since sophmore year)
- I have went to nationals in fencing and hopefully will qualify for junior olympics, #2 in my county, all county honors .. all that kinda stuff.. i hope to get recruited into some colleges.) </p>

<ul>
<li>Varsity Track Team </li>
</ul>

<p>Internship at new york presbyterian hospital in pediatric cardiology.</p>

<p>Theres some more on the resume .. but those are the highlights and i most likely will be doing another internship in dentistry, but i believe that my ECs are strong</p>

<p>So im looking at any acclerate/regular combinded dental program. Can anyone tell me if it is to farfetched for me or if i have a genuine chance. Are bs/dds programs as competitive as bs/md programs? Wat Bs/dds programs out there are good? Are bs/dds programs worth it?</p>

<p>University of Pacific, located in California, has one of the best DDS programs, and they offer a number of options (years-wise). Here's their website: <a href="http://uop.edu/admission/academics/accel_programs/dental/index.asp%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://uop.edu/admission/academics/accel_programs/dental/index.asp&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>Although I am not an expert in BS/DDS programs (I've only research BA-BS/MD programs), I'd say you have a good shot at some type of program based on the requirements and on your stats. Good luck!</p>
