Open Question: Getting into Dental School Question?

I'm concerned about getting into dental school. Since i currently live in NC, there are only 2 dental schools that would charge instate tuition. My question is, since I did phenomenal in high school & currently have 60 credits from community colleges, & only moved to NC a month ago, should i pay the extra out of-state money to go into UNC chapel hill for a B.S. in biology? Which is an hour drive. Or could I be accepted into UNC dental school, or East Carolina University dental school with a B.S from UNCG in biology. I know the DAT is significant, but assuming I got A's & B's, with a 3.6 GPA out of either UNCG ( http://colleges.usnews.rankingsandreviews.com/best-colleges/unc-greensboro-2976 ) or UNC ( http://colleges.usnews.rankingsandreviews.com/best-colleges/unc-2974 ) , & did average on the DAT's, is going to UNC over UNCG & spending all of that extra money really that much needed to get into dental school over my chances at UNCG?...
