<p>Hey I'm taking up an interest in dentistry, and perhaps I will pursue it for grad school. However, I'm fairly new to it and would like a brief description of it. </p>
<p>How hard is it generally to get in? </p>
<p>How many years is a DDS degree? </p>
<p>Do you have to study DDS first in order to go to school for orthodontics? </p>
<p>Or is it just a separate 2 year course of study you go into once you graduate from undergrad? </p>
<p>Which undergrad school (from the choices) has strong pre-dentistry tracks/majors:
NYU
Stevens Tech
Rutgers U.
Carnegie Mellon U.</p>
<p>Thanks,
Angel</p>
