Hello everyone,
Up until recently, I was a pre-med student. I am entering my senior year of college and I need to figure out my path, especially when it comes to prepping for the entrance examinations. After shadowing some MD's I realized that while the profession is immensely rewarding, it may not be the one for me. This is because a lot of the time being a physician (depending on the field) can become a bit repetitive with everything going on internally for the most part. A friend in dental school told me about how in dentistry, hands are everything. You're always using your hands and you see results right away which is something I may find more fitting. I am now going to start shadowing some dentists to see if this could be a fit for me. However, as a pre-med, I learned about how to prepare for MCAT but the DAT seems like a different world. If anyone has experience and can tell me what the route is in regards to preparation, prep courses and practice exams, please let me know! Thanks so much.
