Hey all,
I was in dental school and was on the verge of failing out before withdrawing. I am considering going to medical school, but am worried that I’ll also fail out of med school. My reasons for failing my dental classes:
1. I had a severe mental illness that was impacting my ability to study (now on medications)
2. I wasn’t studying enough.
3. I’m not good with my hands.
??
I scored in the 99th percentile on the DAT and graduated from my university with a 3.55 GPA.
It seemed like in dental school the professors were testing us on stuff they didn’t lecture about. Exams were much harder than undergrad. I was taking notes by hand also while everyone else was using a laptop.
My professor told me that dental school is as hard as medical school.
Any advice?
