<p>I'll be a senior this year, and I want to major in biology to go to a dental school.
I would love to get accepted into accelerated dental programs, but I don't think my
SAT score is high enough. Right now, I have 4.0 UW g.p.a., but our school pretty much
sucks, with only 2 AP classes offered. I had to study AP Biology, Chemistry, and Economics by myself to take the exams. I'm an international student, and my school has a weird rule against foreign students, so I couldn't take part in any of the sports team.
SAT score - 690CR 720M 630W
SAT subject tests - 720 Biology 730 Chemistry 790 Math IIC
EC
100~200 hours - church worship band (10,11,12)
School's worship leader (10,11,12)
NHS VP (12)
Class Officer (10)
Volunteer at a dentist's office..and etc. (nothing too exciting...I know..)</p>
<p>I'm looking at some of the accelerated dental programs at BU, NYU (high reach..), Case, Lehigh, and some other schools. If I don't get into those programs, I'm not sure
which schools will be good for me to get high gpas and stuff to prepare for dental schools.
SOMEBODY HELP ME!!</p>
<p>Assuming you don’t get into an accelerated dental program, what else are you looking for besides a school with a strong science curriculum? Do you need financial aid? Is there a geography that you are restricted to? We need more information about what kind of academic environment you are seeking. The fact that your school offers few APs and you took several on your own is very much in your favor. No one cares if you participated in sports if you have other ECs.</p>
<p>In which state do you live? How far are you willing to travel? You won’t be eligible for in-state tuition anywhere.</p>
<p>I am currently going to a school in Ohio, but since I’m an international student, I know that I won’t be able to get any financial aid, unless I go to Harvard or other rich schools (which won’t happen…). As long as I get into good schools, I don’t care whether I’m in California or New York.</p>
<p>Check out the University of the Pacific accelerated dental program. If you apply early, you’ll get an answer early and maybe some merit aid.</p>
