So here is me eating my breakfast while surfing SDN. Then, suddently I realized misspelling in this person's post, and I'm tempted to comment on that spelling, but then I stopped because that is too common. So, I thought... "mmm... what are some the most annoying things that people do?" Well, I've started my list, let's hear about yours, so we can all laugh in the middle of the application process.


10. People post jus to say that someone can't spell.
9. "Does people fail out of NYU?"
8. "Please help me with my PAT. How do I improve?"
7. "Are dentist better than doctors?"
6.
5.
4.

(Please add your own here.)

[Please take note this is not meant to be disparaging or insulting in anyway to any individual, I simply want to express some humor here.]

6. "Mommy, why does it burn when I pee?"
5. "Umm, I have a 3.978 with years of research and NIH grants, will my A- in P-Chem screw me over?? Please help, i'm soo worried!"
4.
 
1)Any post regarding prestige or "best", then smuggly dismissing detractors as jealous

2)Any post attempting to be the "official whatever" in hopes of starting a super thread and gaining forum immortality(not this one though 😉 )

3)Pointless posts that interrupt the flow of debate.

4) corecting my speling.
I think spelling should only be addressed during arguments/debates, not when giving simple advice.

4. "Where can I find a ranking of dental schools? If US News doesn't validate my school, I don't think I can justify going there!"
3. "Will going to ____ dental school guarantee my chances of becoming an orthodontist?"

2. I got accepted to few schools and my top choice school already, but school X did not interview me yet.
1. My parents are dentists, my family have 100 other dentists, so I know what I am talking about, even though I am not a dental student yet. Who cares about the advice from those dental students about "prestige" and "ranking" or anything about dental school and dentistry.
 
I think this thread should be in the pre-dental forum.

and "Mommy, why does it burn when I pee?"
 
And last but not least:

I'm a Canadian dental student and was wondering why american dental students are so dumb? Our dental school avg's are so much better and so is our education. American dental schools suck.
 
I think we will have more than 10, so I am going to re-number for other people to add.

20. People post jus to say that someone can't spell.
19. "Does people fail out of NYU?"
18. "Please help me with my PAT. How do I improve?"
17. "Are dentist better than doctors?"

9. My overall GPA is 3.8 and science GPA is 3.7, my DAT score is 23/20/19, will I be accepted to dental school? I can't believe I do so poorly compared to my practice Kaplan exam where I get 25/24/22........(I'm screwed!!!)
8. I plan to apply to both medical and dental schools at the same time, do you think the adcom will look down upon this? (I can't make up my mind!!!)
7. For those think that "ranking" does matter, how do you rank these five schools? (****! Why do you think my school X is not an Ivy League school or not number one?)

7b. "I have a 2.9 and a 16 on the DAT. what are my chances?" (and then get mad when people say you have little to no chance and should apply next year) "you people should not go around discouraging people like this"
7c. ANY "what are my chances" threads. if you can't figure out your own chances from looking at your schools' average stats on their websites, then we probably can't either.
6. what is included in science gpa? what is included in BCP? (a simple seach would reveal a detailed answer to this question, complete with links to the aadsas tables, in at least 10 different threads. did you really have to ask again.)

Could be a lot of things, really. Most likely its just a urinary infection. You should consult your physician.

I'm just kidding about my question "Mommy, why does it burn when I pee?"
I think it's funny! But thanks for the advice !!!
 
It gets on my nerves when people post the same question in the dental and pre-dental forum. If the rest of you are like me (and I think you are) you already read both forums. It is just redundant to post twice!

Well, I feel guilty about this, but i seldom check out the DAT forum anymore. Once in a great while i'll pop in to see whats up with those who have yet to take the DAT, but not often. SO I assume that it may be that way for many(not all) dental students that may no longer check the pre-dent forum. SO you may feel the need to post twice. Which I am about to do...so 😛

Thanks, I made it up. I guess sarcasm is hard to read on the internet.
 
Kinda the wrong crowd here.... but the thing that bugs me the most about this place is exactly this thread. LIGHTEN UP!!!!!!!!!!! It's not the end of the world if a new person comes along and asks a duplicte question. If there were no duplicate questions allowed, this forum would come to a stand still. There ARE limited topics regarding dental school..... Patience people, patience. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

No, no, you misunderstood. I meant that when someone posts the exact same question on two different forums on the same day. That just makes more work for the moderators to have to go back and close up one of the threads and instruct the rest of us to post on the other topic. That's all I meant! I didn't mean to offend anyone.

I thought it was pretty light so far. Little quick on the trigger tiger.

Ive been away for a short while, but everyone seems a little edgey. Which is very entertaining to a point.

Back to the original post.

6)I don't like being quoted. But i suppose its a necessary evil.

I don't think anyone was offended heyitscyndi, including predentchic!! After all, this thread is Humor: Top Ten. I like that the op included the word humor.
 
No, not offended at ALL. I just feel bad for the newbie op when they ask a pretty decent question and they get jumped for it. I just wanna say, "Ahhh.... It's ok. We're just moody around here. We're dental students." 😉 No harm, no foul.
 
So, it really bugs me when people start a sentence with "so". Just in general.
 
Lets not forget, "How much money do dentists or orthodontists make?"
 
So here is a summary, I apologize if your due credit for creativity wasn't given. Thanks for everyone's silly post. It lightens my application process.

30. People post jus to say that someone can't spell.

24. "Where can I find a ranking of dental schools? If US News doesn't validate my school, I don't think I can justify going there!"
23. "Will going to ____ dental school guarantee my chances of becoming an orthodontist?"

11. "How much money do dentists or orthodontists make?"
10. I'm a pre-dent applying for dental school this year, and I like to know if it is hard to get in an orthodontic residency? If so, why is it so hard?

Good Job Dr. Smiley-OR. :laugh:

I think this is a funny thread. I believe you have to have a sense of humor and since most dental and pre-dent's are a tinsy weensie bit uptight, learning to laugh at ourselves is important. Besides, it is hard to tell "intent" and "sarcasm" without being able to look into someone's face.

👍
 
My #1 is:

"Average income of dentist"
