<p>So I know Lehigh is primarily known for it's engineering and business programs, but I'm interested in entering a pre-dental track (denied from the 7yr with Upenn) and was wondering if Lehigh's science programs would sufficiently prepare me for dental school. The reason being is that Lehigh's biological science ranking comes in at 195, and I'm anxious enough about getting into dental school.
I know that when it comes down to it a high GPA, rank, and DAT score will propel you towards getting in, but I don't want my scores to plummet at Lehigh because it is very competitive. </p>
<p>That being said, would be it wiser to attend a less competitive school - like Penn State for instance? Since ultimately, a high GPA is what will boost my chances in getting into dental school?</p>
