ACADEMIC REQUIREMENTS
A high GPA is an important aspect of your application to dental school.  A GPA of >3.6 is ideal, but a lower GPA will not guarantee a rejection. GPA averages vary between schools. It is, of course, important to work hard to keep your GPA up.

CLINICAL EXPERIENCES
Don't think of these as a check list. You really should desire to find and learn about medicine and all of its specialties. Here, quality is better than quantity. Quality experiences consist of face-to-face interactions with patients - not just watching. Of course any experience is better than none, but find those that you can talk and help patients.
