Hey all, So I went to submit my application yesterday, but I held off because I got nervous about my evaluators not being to able to submit evaluations after I have submitted my AADSAS application. I had seen on here that evaluators CAN send them after AADSAS submission. However, when I went to...

I am a bit confused about the supplemental application process and had a few questions! 1) I am submitting my AADSAS within the next day, but am I allowed to submit it without completing the "Program Materials" quadrant? Some of the schools' pages on AADSAS have a question section such as "Why...

So lately I have been hearing a lot of people say that one thing that you need to match on competitive residencies (like ortho) is "strong away rotations". What makes an away rotation "strong"? Also, will it have some effect if it is made at another school in my state vs if I go to another state...

Hello everyone! I have a small question regarding the DAT and application process. I'm finishing my winter semester for my Junior year this may and going on a 10 week study plan before taking the DAT mid July. Is that late? I asked some of the dental admission officers and they said that I'll...

My mom died unexpectedly during finals week of last semester (fall 2016). The original plan was to study for the DAT all of Christmas break and take the test the second week of spring semester. Obviously, dealing with this, not to mention the crazy nature of her death (murder conspiracies...
