As a future dentistry student, how do most pre-dental students navigate the financial burden of dental school, and are there any specific strategies or programs that help them?

I am an 18 year old rising college freshman and have been interested in pursuing dentistry throughout all four years of high school. I am convinced this profession will not only help me serve my community but also help give me a bigger understanding of collaboration and communication. I already have experience volunteering at a hospital and have frequent visits with my orthodontist but I am just worried about paying for this professions education as I am aware it will not only take a long time and be difficult, it will also cost a pretty penny.

How do stand out in dental school?

What is the best way for a sophomore in high school to stand out when getting into dental school. I want to either be a dentist or orthodontist. I want to job shadow but don’t know how to reach out. Also, is there anything else that would deem me a good fit. My school doesn’t have many advanced science classes. Ex: No AP classes.
