Hi everyone. Im a D2 student interested in applying to pediatric residency. My GPA is currently at a 3.813 and class rank wise, I'm around 25 out of 100. My school does not have a pediatric residency, so we get plenty of pediatric clinic exposure, which should help boost my resume. There were...

I've come to realize that this program isn't aligned with my values and has become a difficult environment for me. I initially hoped I could push through the full two years, but now, facing another year, it feels unsustainable. I'd really appreciate any advice on how to begin the process of...

Hello can any previous residents or current residents provide their experience with Methodist in BK? Specifically with getting experience with molar endo, bridge work, and surgical extractions. Has anyone chose to continue and do a second year of residency?

Hi

Hey guys. Why is it that some perio residencies get GME funding and some do not? Is it because certain programs have components with affiliated hospitals vs. being dental school based? Does the GME money only come from Medicare or Medicaid or where, or on a state-by-state basis ? Or if a...

Hey guys, Im in my 4th year, and I was considering applying to endo next cycle for 2020. I know only some programs require ADAT, while others accept it, but would it increase my chances if I were to take it?

I am a current D4 and I am torn between applying to residency or going straight to work. What is the personal experience from anyone who has done a GPR/AEGD? I have heard so many things. Some people have said it is a waste of time and they wish they would have gone straight to work because their...

Hi, I'm a third year dental student from Canada who is interested in pedo. It seems most Canadian programs only accept applicants who have at least one year of experience after DDS and then offer a 3-year program. I am not too keen on investing 4 additional years so I'm currently looking at US...

Hey everyone! I'm an international dental student in a direct entry program (Im currently 19). I just finished with my first semester of dental school and unfortunately its been a real beatdown on me. I feel like since my mid-sem ive started losing sight of the big picture and why I decided to...

I participated today in a school seminar given to my class by one of the local dentists who was talking to us about Implantology and the current trends in the field. I found the field fascinating did a bit of research into the field. So after hours of searching, I learned that there is no...

Being almost done my first year of Dental school and going to second year, I was lucky to get some exposure to a few of the dental specialties and OMFS caught my attention. It is to my understanding that in North America there are 4 and 6 year programs with the 6 year programs granting a MD. My...

Hey! What type of hospital jobs are available after completing an OMFS residency? Any limited to those with the MD (6-Year)? I heard that one can pursue oncology afterwards and was curious what they are open to practice in a hospital setting! Thanks, guys! :)

Hi, I'm an international dentist in Australia planning to come to attend an American School for furthering my studies after dental school (GPR or residency). I understand I need to have an ADA approved dental degree in order to be able to practice in USA + getting accepted into residency or GPR...

Hi, I am an international dentist from India, considering a move to the US for doing a 2-year residency in one of the specialties. I wanted to know which dental schools provide an H1B visa for dental residents. The residency usually pays a stipend and hence F1 visa is not really an option. Are...
