Abstract/OtherAbstract:
This study examined the records of dental students in the class of 1969 at the university of Pittsburgh School of Dental Medicine, in an attempt to determine statistically what preprofessional major was the best predictor of academic success in dental school. In the sample studied, no differences were found among the four groups-when they compared on the variable, dental school grade point average. These data suggest that the selection of the preprofessional major course of study may bear little relationship to academic performance in dental school.
