Dentistry ?

College Majors
1

<p>Im going to take a post graduate year this fall, and pretty soon i have to determine wither i want to study Pre-Dentistry or Pre-Law?
im having a hard time trying to make up my mind. everybody around me especially my father thinks that dentistry is a bad choice! even though i pretty much liked it.
i have searched the top colleges in pre-dentistry but they were poorly rated! one was 35, and the other was 63 or something. Does that mean Dentistry is not worth it?
I really love Biology and i find it most intresting even somewhat easy compared to the other courses. </p>

<p>should i go through with Dentistry? and is it safe and wise if i apply to much stronger schools even if dentistry isnt their thing??</p>

<p>Don’t allow others to influence your choice. If Dentistry is your thing, then pursue it, otherwise you’ll end up in a career you hate.</p>

<p>Also I’ve heard you’re better off not taking the Pre-whatever tracks, but rather focusing on another major while fulfilling the requirements for Law/Med/Dentistry.</p>

<p>My father is a dentist and my sister is a lawyer. Dentistry has more specific pre-reqs than Law. Try to talk with some people in the field as well as pre-Dental groups and Dental schools and see what they have to say. I’ll suggest that you start with Biology and go from there - I do know that good grades in science courses are important.</p>
