Hey guys, I'm just a young girl who wants to do something successful with her life and also very indecisive. I'm going to be taking general arts and sciences in college and was interested in maybe becoming a dentist; I hope this isn't impossible. I looked up online stuff one needs to know to become a dentist, and one of the very important things were math :(! (Oh no) I've never been good at math at all, but it seems everything I seem to be interested in involves math( I thought of nursing too) In highschool my grades were not as good as im sure they could have been, but I'm older now and really would like to have a successful comfortable life, and I don't want to be bouncing from job to job always being tight on money.. This isn't important anyways What I am here to ask is if anyone could give me some info on becoming a dentist and what to expect and what not. I will try and do my best in general arts so that I can get into a dentist course. I love working with people and seeing happy faces upon them. I love it when you help someone and they are so happy and feel much better about themselves, I'm more interested in the television industry, but my mom doesn't agree hehe so I'll try out something else. Anyways anything to help will be greatly appreciated :) Thanks in advance.

I;m very happy that you know what you want to do with your life. Now, you can take the steps to work towards it. I don't know much about being a dentist, but I suggest you look for school that are only for dentists or specialize in dentistry. You don't want to waste your time at a school that's not your trade.
