What is pre-dentistry?

Answer 1

Pre-dentistry refers to students who are taking college level courses to gain entrance into dental school. Although the specific course requirements for each school vary, the standard courses needed are nearly the same as pre-med:

2 semesters of chemistry,

2 semesters of advanced chemistry (usually organic),

2 semesters of Biology,

2 semesters of physics, and

an English course or two.

Pre-dental students also study for and take the Dental Admissions Test to gain entry into dental school.
