besides research skills (that I probably won't ever need again) and getting better at reading scientific papers, not really lol. but the experience was still worthwhile
You're welcome. When I applied, it was 3.0 but they made exceptions. I didn't have 3.0 but I still got in. I'd suggest checking out whatever it says on their website now
where did you go for your post bacc? I'm a premed student at College Park as well and I'm considering a post-bacc. I see that UMD college park offers a bost bacc, would you recommend that?
hey, i don't know anything about UMD post-bacc, but I did mine at George Squared. alot of UMD alum go there. check it out on Google, let me know if you have any questions about it
would you say the same thing if I have 3.2 overall and 3.1 science? I am just cutting over the cutline but I haven't been told that I would need to do post bacc but I wanted to hear ur opinion thank you
Hey! Really sorry for the late response. At the end of the day, it depends on what the rest of your application looks like. I can't tell you because it depends on each person and I'm no admissions officer. Is it possible to get into dental school with those stats? Absolutely, I know people who have. However, other things like a strong DAT score, extracurriculars, etc. could have helped as well.
Nice to see you in the comments bro. Hope you're doing well. I would recommend ones that have good reputations with getting students into dental school. Definitely ask around, but a few I know of are G Squared (where I did mine), MHS at Meharry, OHS at BU, Barry MS Program, and Mississippi College.
How was your experience working at the NIH? Did you gain any skills or knowledge that helped you in grad school?

Thank you for the information. Is there a GPA requirement for G Squared?

Can you do a post bacc & a masters degree?
Yes
Thanks for responding can you do it at the same time?
@susej3545 idk. It doesn't really make sense to be doing both at the same time
