Just go to denist school in INdia, they're probablya ccept you there.

Try to get into dental school in Canada. It's disgustingly competitive.

[WarrenAch]

Yeah,just here in MTL,there's like 900 applications per year and only 84 persons get selected...lol

[lelouchlibritannia]

@WarrenAch Are you referring to all 3 schools or only McGill?

[WarrenAch]

I was referring to only UofM,but McGill,Sherbrooke,Laval have similar place capacity,amazingly competitive....

tell me about it. When i finish my bachelors i'm applying to schools in the US. theres only two dental schools in ontario! its ridiculously competitive.

just be a dentist, you get paid more than a doctor, and its not very stressful, in collage, compared to working to be a doctor. Remember, money is what most people want, your might not like it that much, but you get more vacation.

hey what kinda of grades do you have to have in highschool. Ive kept above a 3.0 all the time and im a senior with a 3.3 and willing to work hard. or does it really matter as long as i get to college then go from there? I really want to become a dentist

i heard with medicine there are 4 yrs residency where u make 40k a year, then u become a doctor and make better money. is it like that in dentistry or do u just become a dentist after the 4 yrs of dental school?

[WarrenAch]

Sorry if i'm late,but dentists make pretty good pay...There is residency in Dental school as well,where you can get paid the same as M.D. residents.

You can become a dentist after 4 years of dent.But if you wanna be a surgeon/pediatric specialist dentist,go for residency.
