Help! Will this ruin my future?
I really want to be an orthodontist but... :( this year i got a C+ in biology! (10th grade) will this hinder me beoming an orthodonist/ getting into a dental school/ or even a good college?
Answers:
As a dentist myself I can tell you that in my first couple of years in high school I got a couple of C's in science classes. What you need to focus on is your 11th and 12th grade studies...take as many science (biology, chemistry, anatomy) as you can. Also talk to your high school guidance counselor, he/she will be able to get you in contact with pre-dental and dental schools and you will be able to see what classes are required. Also check the American Dental Association website, there is A LOT of useful information on dental careers. Good luck!!
