Most dental schools require one year each of general chemistry, organic chemistry, biology and physics. All courses must have laboratory components. At Marquette, these requirements are met by completing:
-
Chemistry 1001, 1002, 2111 and 2112
-
Biology 1001, 1002 and 2001
-
Physics 1001 and 1002 or Physics 1003 and 1004
Some schools' admission committees also require or recommend additional courses. You should consult admission requirements of U.S. and Canadian dental schools, published by the American Association of Dental Schools, for the specific requirements and recommended courses for each school. If you are interested in a particular school, you should learn as much about that school as possible as early as you can.
