you wouldn’t be require english or psychology cause i’m sure you already took that in medical, but unfortunatly for dental assistant everything is different. It is “dental science, dental materials, chairside dental” it is much different then nursing, but only a year to take it. and its such a fun field. definately think about it, i love it :)
