Best Answer

I can tell you as a professor, my best students are those who have been out of education for a number of years. They now have a reason for being there and understand the benefit of a good education. They are serious students and bring with them life experience which brings value into the classroom. They are better able to analyze situations and are much more capable of articulating ideas, concepts, recommendations, options etc. Most have a fear of returning to the classroom. However, once they have made the transition, they become excellent students. Never let age be a concern or how long you have been out of academic education. With time and age comes wisdom. You will do fine!

Where can one get a bachelor's degree in pediatrics?

Within the United States, I have never been made aware of a bachelor's degree in pediatrics. That being said, a pediatrician is a physician with a specialty in pediatrics. This would take four years of undergraduate coursework, an additional four years of medical school, and a minimum of three years of internship and residency.

How long does it take to earn a dental degree in the us?

Most dental schools confer a dental degree after 4 years. One school (UOP) has a 3 year program. Now understand this is after 2-4 years of undergrad have been completed. Another school (UMKC) had a 6 year combined BS/DDS program which meant that the accepted high school grads were on a track to graduate with both degrees in 6 years. I don't know if UMKC still offers this program.
