<p>Unfortunately, I’m a little out of touch with which professors are teaching the basic sciences since it’s been 4 years, and they switch up professors. I had Hubbard for ochem, Armstrong for bio 1, and Stanger-Hall for bio 2 (I never took pchem and my gen chem prof isn’t there anymore). Hubbard was amazing, Armstrong was good, and Stanger-Hall is good, but her tests are difficult. Morrison subbed for us in ochem once, and I didn’t like his teaching style (it was less structured than Hubbard). I also heard from others that he tends to go slow at the beginning, then tries to cover a crapload of material right before the test. I think intro bio is ridiculously easy and can be self-taught, so I don’t think which professor you have makes a big difference (then again, I do well with bio anyway, so that’s just my opinion). I found that ratemyprofessor.com was usually true, but I would still take it with a grain of salt. </p>
<p>If I’m not mistaken, biochem majors are required to do research (that may or may not be true), but there are plenty of chances to do undergrad research. Most open positions aren’t advertised, so the easiest way is to just go through faculty pages and email any profs that you’re interested in working with. They’ll tell you if they’re open or not or if they’ll be open later. Most science majors have an option that allows you to get credit towards your major for doing research in an actual lab (vs. a lab class).</p>
<p>Does Ohio have more dental schools than Georgia? Would you get Ohio residence if you went there? I would take that into consideration when choosing schools (if you’re able to get Ohio residence and there are more dental schools in Ohio, it increases your chances of having favorable schools).</p>
