So it turns out our premed counterparts are having more fun than us. How is this possible? The wait for interviews/acceptances will be a long and agonizing one. Seeing many stressful threads out here, I believe it is time for a laugh.

So post any funny comments/stories/jokes that you've encountered from the less informed predents or even your own less informed experiences.

Enjoy!:D

---------------------------------------------------------------------
#1: "Dirty advice"
Predent 1: So do we need to make an A+ in order to get a LOR from the professor?
Predent 2: No not necessarily, what you need to do is invite them over for a candle light dinner. BTW make sure you have an album of Michael Bolton and some scotch at all times. I'm %1000 sure they'll write you an awesome LOR the next day, if you get my drift.
Predent 1: I'm way ahead of you (winks, then pulls out a bottle of tequila)

#2: "Hotshot spilling the beans gone wrong" (I give credit to toofache32 for this. Click: Orthodontist post #8)
Narrator: everything has gone well thus far until……
Interviewer: So, why do you have such interest in orthodontics?
Predent X: Well, I'd figure that in the event that if 9 fingers were severed, I'd still be able to work. You do realize orthodontists only need 1 finger to work right?
Interviewer: No I did not know that, and why is that? (Perplexed look)
Predent X (Places his feet on desk): Well, to direct my hot future assistants to do my work, and to count my dough at the end of the day of course!
Interviewer (Enraged): Please escort yourself out of my office.

#3 "Naïvety"
Predent A: Sup dawg, u think i'll git into dent skoo wit dem statz of mine?
Predent B: Aw heel naw
Predent A: Wats u thinks I shud do?
Predent B: Apply 2 dem state dennal skoos.

This cracked me up

Predent A:
I guess Columbia is gonna interview people with AA 24+. I wonder when will they notify us if they decide to interview us after Dec.

Predent B: yea i know but I wonder why they skip over earlier batches with competitive stats and gave out interviews to later batches.

Predent A: Maybe they were on the top of the pile?

FB status timeline this summer of a predent at my school with very mediocre grades...

1) Taking off this week so I can study for my DAT next Monday!
A week later, after the one (and only) week of studying...
2) Sitting in the parking lot waiting for the test center to open!
A few hours later...
3) Well, God doesn't slam one door in your face without opening another.

I seriously think some people live in a fantasy world where things are just supposed to come to them magically without any hard work. Anyone else encounter this kind of stuff?! Hah! God ain't gonna do nothin' if you don't put in the effort in your end!

This gave me a good laugh. haha! I know people like this, and I just want to scream in frustration when they ask me for advice and then don't take it.

I know a couple of people who treat their first real DAT as a practice test. They only study for 1-2 wks. "Yeah, I just want to get a feel of how the test really is, ya know?" No, I don't know because I would never pay over $300+ to take a "practice test". Haha

Predent A: How are the majority of you going to finance dental school? What is the max loans amounts you can qualify for? resources?

Predent B: i've got the winning lottery ticket in my hand right now

Predent C: sell a kidney. just urinate more frequently.

Predent D:
I plan to be a famous actress from now to next august. Star in a couple of Oscar worthy movies, make several hundred million, and donate a simulation lab to the dental school of my choice.

This way, I am guaranteed acceptance, no need to worry about tuition, and get to live a luxurious life style while everyone else is looking for roommates and eating ramen.

Too bad all I got is my good looks but no acting experience. I guess I will have to contact Micheal bay to see if he is making transformers 4,5 and 6.

Predent E: Hustling meth I made using equipment and chemicals from the chemistry dept where I work at. ;B

I know people who did that. $300 bucks is a drop in the bucket compared to the total cost of dental education. If it helps you get a better score, why not.

My point is that they don't try to study before this "practice test", and it is their first attempt. Maybe it is just me, but I think getting that good score the first time is better than multiple half-hearted attempts. But yes, 300 is nothing to people who have the money to pay.

I agree! Schools will see that "practice test" when they apply, so if they do bad on it...:eek:...lol It's not so much the fact that it is $300 but more of a fact that it is an official score that is sent out. I wouldn't want any of my practice tests attached to my app!

You are like the third person to be talking about him. I have to see what is so interesting about DoeAdeer...
 
Very funny thanks for posting!

One of the posts I remember as making me literally laugh at loud was, I believe it was 'Bereno's take on and interview he had.
I think it started with "Do you consider taking a pen from a bank stealing?" I would love to find that again for a laugh!

(sorry, just to add: I know I strayed from the topic of "less informed"...but in the spirit of laughter I had to include this.) If anyone here remembers this post they will laugh too. Maybe someone can find it.

#4 "Yale College of Dental Medicine"
Predent A: Yea I'm shootin' for Columbia, UPenn, may be Harvard, and a bunch of other no name schools. What about you?
Predent B: Me? My dream school is Yale College of Dental Medicine.
Predent A: Never heard of that school before.
Predent B: A bunch of folks on SDN told me it's a great ivy school especially with my awesome stats.
Predent A (One eyebrow slightly raised): Uh yeah, good luck applying there dude. Wish you the best!
Predent B: You too!

#5 "DDS v. DMD" (This one actually happened freshmen year, never seen her since)
Predent: So which dental degree are you hoping to get?
Me(Sort of confused she asked): Uh… the DDS
Predent: You know there's the DMD right?
Me: Yes I do. Although there isn't really any differences other than the schools designating them.
Predent (reasserting herself): Uhh yah there is! You know that DMD stands for Doctor of Dental Medicine right? Doctors with DMD are medical doctors who specialize in the oral cavity. They can diagnose oral cancer and prescribe medicine.
Me: No they are not medical doctors, they are dentists.
Predent: Uhh believe what you want! I'll be the real doctor, and you can be the fake doctor.
Me(rolled my eyes): Whatever….

#6 "Jokes On Me"

It's just not the same anymore.:cry:

What have they done to you?
 
This is by far one of the funniest experiences i have read on SDN... from a few years ago this kid explains how he really effed up his interview at Case Western.

Here is the full link: http://forums.studentdoctor.net/showthread.php?t=664876

Enjoy!!

Ok I am a very very nervous person when it comes to doing something that Ive been worried about for a long time, in this case its the interview. This is my very first interview and is probably my worst.

As soon as I entered the room, my legs began shaking and I was tooo nervous, the dentist told me to take a seat. I sat down and he could tell I was nervous so anyways the whole experience was pretty much bad and what topped the negative experience was this.......................

Interviewer So tell me about your leadership experience?

Me (Very nervous at the moment, In my mind Im thinking I have to come up with something) Well Um I guess um hmm Well when I used to play Halo 3 online with my friends, I used to be the party leader that hosted the games and stuff (In mind mind, did I just take the biggest gun and shoot my self in the foot)

Inteviewer( blasts out laughing)

Me ( I should have smiled to make it seem like it was a joke, but I was too nervous and I had a serious look on my face)........

Interviewer Notices I had a serious look on my face and immediately stops laughing (In his mind, are you kidding me)

So then the interviewer asks me if I have any questions for him

Interviewer Do you have any questions for me?

Me Since you're an interviewer Im assuming you like it and like asking people questions. Why? (WHY WOULD I SAY THAT.)

Interviewer I dont understand what you mean?

Me Never mind I messed up can I ask you another question?

Interviewer Shoot

Me What are the dynamics and the fundamentals of being a dentist (Trying to act smart and intelligent after I exposed my stupidity through out the interview)

Interviewer What do you mean by dynamics

Me Well um you know the um I guess you can say um like the intersocial disciplines between the connection of the fundamentals of being a dentist (WTF DID I JUST SAY!!!!!!!)

Interviewer I don't know I just work and go home.


Im frustrated right now banging my head to the wall, how can I screw up this badly. Hopefully my other interviews wont end up like this because I really want to get in this cycle.

No idea why. I have read maybe one or two humorous posts...one in the jokes thread and the other was Bereno's interview experience. There seem to be a plethora of lame attempts though...at least people are trying I guess?

I just remembered one. It's not *that* funny but whatever because I want this thread to be kept alive haha.

Friend: I can't decide if I want to be a dentist or physical therapist. You're pre-dental right? What do you think?
Me: Maybe you could try to shadow a dentist to see if you like the experience?
Friend: I don't know... That sounds like a lot of work. I'll just take the DAT and then go from there.

#29 What are my chances?

Hey guys, I have pretty good stats (4.0 GPA, 30AA, 30PAT). Does my school list look good?

-Harvard
-Hahvahd
-Havuhd

Should I apply to some more?

And no, I'm not bragging at all and even though I got pretty good scores on the DAT, I am clueless when it comes to what schools I should apply to.

HUMOR .. . Lets add to this
 
making a “this school” vs another “school” comparison when doing their own research is sufficient enough.
