What other career options have you looked into other than dentistry?

For me its getting a Ms in Public Health or working in the pharmaceutical industry.

I looked into Rockstar. but it seems like too much work. Tattoo artist, but i can't draw. Professional lottery winner. Im still looking into that one. Some people say i have a problem but i can stop whenever i want 🙁

1. Computer Programmer - I tried that and it sucks.
2. Inherit Millions - Still working on it but I'll stick to the plan to be a dentist for now.

How thoughtful

 

[Dr. Dai Phan]

How about medicine? DP

 

[beannaithe]

Thought about doctor and research but both weren't my thing.

If dentistry doesn't work out though, I'm looking into racecar driver! 😀

Pharmaceutical sales, easy job and an easy 80k a year
Pharmacist, pretty easy to and an easy 100k a year
Get an MBA, stressfull but about 100k a year
Theres all types of fields out there, just gotta think about what u will like. I wanna be a dentist so im shooting for the stars, not the moon (jobs above)

Its interesting how there is a handfull of dentistry applicants that initially wanted medicine, didnt get accepted and are now trying their luck in dentistry. By the way dentistry, medicine, and pharmacy are all pretty dam hard. They will are keep you very busy and steal some of your sleep time if not almost all of it, when exam time comes. They all have board exams of which the study books are interchangable between. I get annoyed when some dental applicant rips on medicine and pharmacy. They are very decent fields too.

I agree, but I didn't rip on anything.

i was gonna market hip hop internationally, but it turns out that i hate the music industry! thank god for internships in college, so you can figure this stuff out before entering the real world.

Real Estate Broker. 6 % of commission, meaning $15 k gross just for a house you get it sold for $250k. Pretty good, isn't it?

 

[Lidopaine82]

i hate it when people choose dentistry as an alternative to medicine. i never really considered it because i knew it wasn't for me. although the show ER makes it fun to pretend

 

[fancymylotus]

Nothing. This is what I've always wanted to do.

I worded my post poorly. What i ment was i don't like it when they choose dentistry just because Med school was too tough.

hey polar when are you going to say 100% case..you know that's where you'll end up. Why keep torturing yourself?

American Idol, really? Let me be a friend, and stop you from making a complete fool of yourself

 

[Mysteree]

1. Medicine-didn't work out, and I wouldn't have a life 🙁
2. Real estate broker-too pushy, and not really my thing
3. Interior Decorator-this would be fun, but it would be hard to find clients
4. Housewife-sounds good on some days, but then I think I'd go nuts sitting at home.
5. Lotto winner-this is always a possibility, wouldn't that be nice.

Look into Podiatry. No, you don't work with kids, you work with feet! So many people don't know what a podiatrist does and because it sounds like pedatric, they assume it deals with kids. 🙄 Right now, Podiatry is like what Dentistry was like 20 years ago as far as admissions standards. It's fairly easy to get into and the quality of life is great for those who wish to have a family. Some schools will even take your DAT scores! I know a good deal about this field since my wife is a 4th year podiatric medical student. So, if you have any questions, PM me... 👍

lol thats what i did...sort of, its not that med school is too tough, its that life as a doctor is too tough and not worth it

you just look for the easy way out...not matter what. good luck with that. Just some advice, foreplay can be a drag but, in the end, it's worth it. stay cool 👍

 

[phraud]

Gameshow host... that would be awesome!

Yes, but i did lose intramurals in my division. I was extremely disappointed. All was not lost though... i had some good performances to take from it. I recently signed up for USTA. Now my next goal will be US Open at Flushing, NY.

Sit tight, Roger, I'm gonna get you!
