Dental School: What are my chances?

I am 24 years old and a graduate from the University of Florida with a B.A. in Communication Sciences %26amp; Disorders. I also have two minors, one in Linguistics and one in Communication Studies. My overall GPA was a 3.25 and an upper division of 3.4. I've been working for the year that I have been out of school at Cemex as a Quality Control Tech.





I return to school at FIU this May and I am taking up a second Bachelors in Biological Science. I have to take all the pre-reqs (BIO 1/2, CHM 1/2, %26amp; PHY 1/2) before I actually begin to take the core courses such as Organic Chem, Micobiology, etc. I know they can be hard courses but I work hard and learn very quickly.





I plan to shadow two different dentists that I have encountered over the past year; one is a General Dentist and Oral Surgeon. They probably would be the ones I try to get my letters of recommendation from. My goal is to get in by Fall 2010 so I would be taking my DATs sometime in Spring or Summer 2009.





How do I fare?

Well this may be a big step for you.....I do not know how many opportunities there are for you in Florida. If you try Texas you have more than enough doors that will except you. I would suggest that you apply in areas of Texas that are known to be the wealthist....and so on. Good luck
