Does school have negative impression if i don't send them the optional 2x2 photograph?

photos are usually for recall purposes - so its only in your best interest 🙂

Sorry to hijack the thread, but I have a related question...

When sending in the photo... what are your opinions on smiling, facial expressions, and whatnot...

Last 2 years I've applied, my photo was basically like a passport photo - just a resting facial expression - no big toothy grin 😀

your thoughts?

 

[saycheeese]

mine were like passport photos too. School say they want to have a professional-looking photo

the photo should look professional, but showing a smile never hurts...i smiled and it still looked professional.....i think in a way it shows personality

You are applying to a Dental school for heaven's sake...Smile. Don't smile like a jackass, but wear a suit and tie and show those pearly whites....or your kickass grill like my picture to the left

Unless you look less attractive while smiling.

where exactly did you guys get your 2x2 headshots?

just have a friend take your picture against a white background, crop it so that it's 2x2, then bring it to riteaid/savon to have it printed. i placed 6 passport photos on a 4x6, which costs like 15 cents each.

 

[saycheeese]

yeah i did the same thing as nitrolegs

In front of my living room's white wall.

Any cheap photography studio can do them for not much $ (Wal-mart, Target).

I went to Glamorshots at the mall and had a nice beach backdrop with my chin on my fist, looking pensive. A nice misty glow was also added. It turned out really nicely.

Hahaha this is great! I think I might try the misty glow as well! So does everyone pretty much agree that printing something out on your own printer isn't good enough quality?

Well I got it printed for like 35 cents because I don't have a good quality colour printer or photo paper.

I got mine done at costco. It was actually more expensive than I expected, like $10 for 8 photos. But they turned out nice, and going there gave me an excuse to buy a churro, so I feel it was worth it 🙂
