You are in middle school What classes should you take if you want to become a dentist?

Your high school course work really doesn't matter to become a dentist. What matters is your GPA, community service, and test scores. The first years of college will be general education. Your education in dentistry will come in dental school. I suggest you take college prep course work in high school to prepare you for college. Make sure your writing and research skills are up to par. I am finding that many high school seniors are not getting the writing and research skills that they will need in college. You should be able to do a 10 to 20 page research paper with the proper formats. For further info on your course work I suggest you go to your high school counselor or career center for help.
