Hello everyone!

I am curious to know if any of you are willing to share your first year material with me. I was recently admitted into dental school and would like to take a look at any material you may have and willing to share. I would really appreciate it!

Thanks!

Thanks for the links, but I was thinking more along the lines of lecture notes taken during class.

Why are you so worried about this now? You're gonna see it in dental school...don't burn yourself out just yet...

Lecture notes will be different for each school. There is no use in going over someone's notes if they are not going to be at the same school as you. Just ask for some upper classman's notes when you get to school.

you could get a ndbe first aid err .... dental decks? not sure how much help that'd be. dental school is going to hit you like a ton of bricks and you're going to start school pre burned out by studying during your break...

i pre studied vertebrae and neuroanatomy during my summer and that entire summer only helped me a little bit by saving me maybe a couple days worth of studying at dental school's pace. the bad thing is that i felt burnt out probably faster than my classmates. i should've taken out more undergrad loans and chilled the fugg out and go on relaxing trips

Trust me... Every school is different. My suggestion... Just don't forget anything you learned for the DAT. That's my best advice. Otherwise, just relax. But if you really insist on pre-studying... It's best to get the material from the school you're actually going to.

i've used zero ochem, genchem, trig., hole punching, and cube counting. general cell bio and reading skills should be inherent by now...

I think she meant how much it sucked your soul.

I joke every year that I want to walk around with a bucket with 'smiles' written on the outside, and when the first years ask me during orientation week what the bucket is for…

"I'm here to collect your smiles. You wont be needing or using them here."

Really?

I would say don't stress if you forget everything you learned for the DAT.

Our schools must have vastly different curriculum as the only concepts that were shared were some cell bio that took about 45 minutes to refresh.

My best advice would be to stay mentally sharp. I really coasted after December and didn't take any classes. I just worked/vacationed for 8 months. The first 6 weeks of school were rough and it felt like I was in a fog. You don't need to be studying school work, but challenging yourself intellectually in one way or another would be a good idea.

Maybe in your school but definitely not mine.

Like I said, every school is different. MY best advice, for MY situation, if I were to study anything, is to make sure I would not forget the core basics of the DAT. It would just be silly to waste time reviewing that once you're in school and you need to be focused on the finer details of the subject.

While you're at it... Work on your hand skills... I found ceramics useful.

Just because I am curious...for YOUR situation at YOUR school, what classes are you taking where you are using g.chem, o.chem, bio 1 & 2, trig (other than cell bio topics?)

Here at UConn we have used absolutely zero DAT material... I think maybe RC and PAT are the only ones represented well enough here.

memorize this one

Damn that plexus!

we had to do the brachial plexus in undergrad anatomy, but we weren't responsible for anything upstream of the cords.

i assume that's out the window for Anatomy: Dental School Edition™

Yes, as soon as the cranial portion kicks in and you are desperately trying to remember, in the next 30 seconds, where the cell bodies of the 3 different types of axons that pass through that foramen you are fairly certain didn't exist 2 hours ago reside, you will miss that brachial plexus.
