Just wanted to vent...I think studentdoctor.net is great...but I get really irritated by people who post questions to complete strangers about which dental school they should attend. Just by doing so I think you answer one question....you have no backbone...and probably shouldn't be a graduate student to begin with. Thanks for reading

Take it easy bro. There is nothing wrong with asking a complete stranger about a school. It offers a different perspective, and might bring up some points that the person asking the question might find helpful.
It's obvious that the OP has no backbone, seeing as they had to create a whole new account to post this rant.
ok first of all, i think one of the best things you can do is ask other people their opinions of the schools. you're going to be spending the next FOUR YEARS of your life at the school you choose, so you'd better know what you're getting yourself into and other people's perspectives of the schools definitely can't hurt.
plus there were things i didn't know about schools, but i was able to ask about it on here.
there were some things about my undergrad that i didn't like and some things that i did. so there are things i know that i like and dislike about a school. it's nice to be able to get people's opinions on sdn because you don't feel comfortable (and it would be out of place) to ask some questions you want the answers to while you're at your interviews.

wow.
If you don't like those questions, just simply don't open the thread and don't read them!
Noob, people are going to be spending 4 years at X institution. Every sentence of information from either family, friend, SDN members, dog is important. It isn't like which of the following shirts should I buy! Its gotta be the best choice you can make.
UCSF!!! That school gets 2 summers off!!! 4 months each!!!! I don't know ANY OTHER SCHOOLS that offer summer breaks!!!! UCSF!!!!!! Besides, it's REALLY hard to get in. If you got in, go there!!
Kind of a ridiculous statement to make, and immature. Relax. If a person is trying to optimize the decision making process by getting feedback from others who may have different perspectives, how does that equate to their having no backbone? Are we required to make the decision entirely independently and without counsel in order to be "courageous?" Chill out
I think the OP is upset because he chose to drink milk outside on a hot day.
milk was a baaadd choice
