*sigh* The many kids nowadays in University with all their rent, tuition and food covered. It used to the the anomaly, now it seems pretty popular. Damn rich kids.
So Ren, I'm also thinking about Dental School. After my first two years of University, I got accepted into Med School, but that summer I shadowed a couple doctors and realized that it was just not for me. The hours are terrible, it's competitive and it just wasn't what I wanted. However, my friend took the route of being a Dentist and now he's starting to work and he's paid off his student loans, owns a M3, and has extremely great hours. Not to mention he only works 4 days a week.
Hopefully life as a Dentist (assuming I get in and everything else) is as great as it seems. That being said, I heard general is one of the most monotonous jobs out there.
