BU or UOP???

[caninus]

I am a foreign trained dentist and I have to chose between the programs at UOP and BU to get the US degree and to be able to practice in the US. Any advice or thoughts on this dilemma???

UOP

Congrtas caninuns- just know this...the UOP IDS (international dental students) Program is <b>THE</b> toughest program around. The UOP 3 yr program is tough already; but, the IDS program's 1st year combines the <b>hardest classes</b> of UOP first two years all into one year program, if you can handle that...go for it.
Imagine taking- operative, fixed, removable, perio etc... and seeing patients all in the first year! It's tough- even IF you are a trained dentist! I admired all of the IDS students as they really were put to the test- and all came out 'bruised' but happy! Good luck in all your endeavors!

Hey can you explain the IDS for UOP.. the internatinal dental student...??

are you saying this program is a 1 year dental school program?..but it is only for international students. do these interanational students already have a doctor of dentistry degree.

can us regular americans, apply for this 1 year dental school.

hello tryinghard,
international dentists already have BDS/DDS degree from their home country.so to become licensed dentist or to practice in america they have to take addmision in two year international dentist program.
