Hi! You don鈥檛 have to pick a certain major to apply to dental school鈥攚hat鈥檚 important is that you finish the prerequisites (like biology, chemistry, organic chemistry, physics, and sometimes anatomy or biochemistry) and keep your grades strong. A lot of students choose Biology or Health Sciences because those majors overlap with the required courses, but you can choose another major if you complete the prerequisites.

If you鈥檙e hoping to finish in three years, look for a major that covers most of the required science classes and feels like a good fit for you. You're more likely to maintain your interest and raise your GPA in this method. Admissions committees care most about your grades and whether you鈥檝e taken the necessary courses, not about whether your major was the "easiest."
