Abstract
The literature of occupations and professions implies that there may be different routes into given work activities. However, a typology of different paths and associated conditions has not been explicitly advanced in the literature. In this paper, such a typology for professions is set forth. Four different paths into dental school are described and illustrated, and different conditions are associated with each path. In the context of the changing educational and occupational scene in the American society, multiplicity of paths is going to become even more pronounced in the future than it is currently.
