Dental Hygiene School?

What is the male to female ratio in your dental hygiene class? Thinking of going to school for it, but maybe not if chances are that i'll be the only male in the class.

Dental Hygiene School?
Actually from what I have heard at the school i go to, males have a better chance of getting in the program. I haven't meant any guys in any of my classes yet. But because the numbers are so low they will except most guys as long as your grades are good.
Reply:It depends on your area really. The boy to girl ratio can vary. When I applied and interviewed (got accepted too, but decided to do something else) there were going to be 8 boys to 35 girls. Like I said it really depends on your area. Chances are there will be a few other males in your class. I hope this helps! Dental hygiene is a great career choice, if you decide to go with it, I think you will be really happy!
Reply:I've been a member of the dental hygiene faculty at Jo Co Community College for 21 years. We've had about 10 males during that time--each class starts with 25 students. Good luck to you if you choose DH as a career!
