pre dental

Hello, im trying to create a resume to submit for the dental schools to see, but i do not know which template will stand out the best. Does anyone have a template that i can use and fill out my own information? I feel like every template I've chosen does not have a nice setup and makes the...

(Hey guys, so this is my first time posting on this forum, so please if I've asked an already answered question, forgive me, I'm still trying to figure my way around on this lol) So currently looking at the pre-req classes that I have left and given that my gpa is pretty low :( would...

Where would you go and why? context: I'm a WI resident

Hello ! I’m just wondering if any of you from the West coast got any acceptance call from UNE ?

Many dental schools recommend taking A&P, so I decided to register for "Human A&P". My college also offers Physiology by itself (not Anatomy however) but its an upper level biology course so I thought that Human A&P would suffice for dental schools. I still have time to take it off my schedule...

Hello everyone, I've been lurking for quite some time now and decided I needed some advice and peace of mind on my ideas for the DAT prep, since I've already seen some amazing support system on other posts! I currently have a 4.0 GPA (including Chem 1&2, Ochem 1&2, Bio 1&2, Biochem, Anatomy &...

Hey guys I'm a senior in high school who has been pretty set on becoming a Nurse Anesthetist but I'm having second thoughts. I'm just thinking that since it is going to be a doctorate degree by the time I'm in CRNA school that I should just do pre-med or pre-dental rather than nursing. There are...

Thank you!

I completed the Biomed program at Midwestern in Arizona, and I am currently a D1 at MWU. I am more than happy to answer any Qs. Just for starters, I want to clear up some myths: 1) If I do one of the masters programs here, I am guaranteed an acceptance. They only offer guaranteed interviews...

Hi everyone, I'm a pre-dental student in NC. I have a few concerns and questions about a few things. To start off I'm a freshman in college but I came in with my associates of science degree currently at (57 credits, after this semester I'll be 72 credits with 67 credits remaining), I have had...

So recently I’ve been going to a local dentist that takes Medicaid to get my fillings and root canals done. During one root canal the sx file separated near the root of my tooth. My dentist said I have to visit a specialist/endodontist so they can remove it or file around it. So we went to the...

I was hoping to apply during the 2018-2019 cycle but i am feeling discouraged about my low gpa.

Has anyone shadowed any dentist in Gainesville? I've been calling and haven't had any luck. Do you guys have any tips. I already volunteer in the Shands dental clinic, but don't know if this is considered shadowing hours.

Hi! I have a 3.7 overall GPA, and 3.6 science GPA. I have a 22 on the DAT total, 22 TS, and 21 PAT. I am very involved on campus, leadership opportunities, etc. What are my chances with these stats?

I am currently taking Organic chemistry Lec/Lab, Cell Bio Lec/Lab, Anatomy&Physiology Lec/Lab at the same time. Of course I might do a little bit better in each one if I stayed in school longer to spread these out over more semesters, but as long as I do well in all of them will this help show...

Hello, everyone. I am currently taking Organic Chemistry Lec/Lab, Anatomy&Physiology Lec/Lab, and Cell Biology Lec/Lab. I am doing well in all of my lectures but I have been giving less time to prepping for all of my labs/studying for pre-lab quizzes since they are worth only 1 credit each and...

hey guys. So I took my DAT last year and scored low. Like an 18AA 18TS 16QR 19CHEM/OCHEM. Applying this year was kind of a gamble for me. So as soon as i submitted my AADSAS in june, i immediately starting studying for my DAT retake. I did this so if i wasnt to get in, I would be ready for next...

Hi everyone, I was just wondering how early I should sign up for the DAT if I want to take it in early 2018 (between January and March?). I want to have my scores available early enough so that way I can apply for the 2019 cycle when the application pool opens on June 1st of next year. If you...

I'm a dental hygienist practicing for about two years. I'm thinking about heading back to school in order to apply for dental school. Although some would balk at this idea, as shown in previous threads from RDHs looking to apply, I do not see myself staying as a clinical hygienist for long and...

Hey everyone. Can someone give me an explanation or timeline on how you decide and get into a specialization? I mean do you just randomly decide you wanna do it then apply? What is a "residency" ? Is it like med school where ur just working and getting a little pay? Or do u have to pay like...

So I applied to Dental School, took my DAT (and did very poorly). I applied a week before I took the DAT because I did not think I would do as poorly as I did. But anyway, I had already told myself that I would just wait until next year to retake the DAT and apply again for next cycle. I am...

Hey! (I really don't know where to put this thread so I'll put it here - mods, feel free to move it) Does anyone here go to or have gone to Lehigh University? I have some questions regarding their programs and research opportunities for pre-dental students. Thanks! -Fyz

I thought I would put out a review/any info to help because I used these threads a lot while studying for the DAT. This summer was pretty much hell, but so worth it. In the end I ended up with the following: PAT: 18 BIO:23 GC: 22 OC:22 RC:26 QR:20 AA: 23 Here is what I did to study...

My dentist had me write my own LOR but she's going to make changes to it and will ultimately send it in herself to AADSAS. Do I waive my right to read it or no? Please help!!!

Hi everyone just a quick question regarding the GPA calculations. Are separate labs included in science GPA? For example for general and organic chemistry the labs were separate grades from the lecture. Thank you!
