Hey guys~!
I finally got in 😀
I can't believe I am writing a thread about me getting in.😉
I have been waiting for this moment for ....let's see...4 years? yeah..I think that's how long I have been on SDN... posting over 2500 times, LOL😛

Good luck everyone!!!!
And if you need any help about how to apply to dental school or how to study for DAT, well...send me a private msg 🙂

 

[Predoctalk]

That's awesome! I have seen numerous posts from you concerning VCU and Midwestern. I am thrilled for you and I know it has been a long time coming. You can relax now, you have made it!!!!!! 👍

 

[Rubber Dam Man]

Congratulations! I can only imagine how you must be feeling - enjoy it because you deserve it. Hope the transition into dental school goes well!

I've been in the application cycle for 5 years improving every aspect of my application each year. I think next cycle should be my lucky one considering I should be finished my Masters by then...

 

[yuppers]

I bet not having to take the DAT again feels just as good.

 

[Oracle DMD]

congrats!

Yes, I know that I can relax but I feel like I should do something productive.

My girlfriend is also finishing her Masters this August. Since I know how hard she is studying, I hope you guys get good news eventually.

I bet not having to take the DAT again feels just as good.

I spent last 2 months studying for DAT again. I just made a really nice note of Genchem and was studying for Ochem until this morning. Bye bye electrophile ~

congrats!

Thanks, will I see you this year?

Change your pre-dents stats! It's one of the most gratifying things ever, to put that you were accepted somewhere. Also, Congrats!

Congratulations! It's awesome when all of the hard work you put in over the past few years finally bears fruit. I recommend continuing dental shadowing/volunteering. You will learn quite a bit that can be applied to making your transition to school a bit easier.

 

[UndergradGuy7]

I guess we won't be seeing you in the DAT Discussion forum anymore. How about a DAT breakdown though?

Also, how long did you study?

 

[punkin85]

I was wondering if I'd ever get to see you post that....guess the waitlist moves! Congrats to you...I love seeing exciting topics like this...totally makes my day too!

See you next year and yea...sell those prep books so you never have to see them again!

 

[doc toothache]

Hallelujah!

 

[OxfordM3]

Congrats man! Seeing you hit the drawing board and studying for DATs again was both inspiring and depressing. 😀 Glad to hear that you don't have to go that route!

 

[New2Philly]

Congrats!!!! No more DAT...Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok 🙂

I can break DAT even more. I was studying to retake DAT and my goal was to get 23+ this time and I really had a feeling that I can get 23+ if I retake.
I have been on SDN for about 4 years, studying almost every summer since freshman but 3 months of studying in freshman year was not even worth 1 hr of studying when I was a senior.

I was wondering if I'd ever get to see you post that....guess the waitlist moves! Congrats to you...I love seeing exciting topics like this...totally makes my day too!

waitlist moves! 😀 u got into midwestern too?
I think I will keep my prep books to remind of my old times, LOL.

Hallelujah!

God exists!

Congrats man! Seeing you hit the drawing board and studying for DATs again was both inspiring and depressing. 😀 Glad to hear that you don't have to go that route!

I cleaned out my DAT study drawer this weekend. I took out the garbage this morning and actually thought about how awesome it is that my DAT study notes were in there, and I would NEVER see them again!

I hope to get accepted at Midwestern when I apply this summer. I see by tracking your progress (i'm on sdn alot) that they take kind to people who really want to be a dentist. Now thats my kind of school. Congratulations and enjoy the best day of your life 🙂

Your post made me smile.
I don't know of a dental school that admits people that aren't that interested in dentistry, but still, your post made me smile.🙂

some people just want it more than others, and some are just in it for the money/lifestyle and what not so i'm glad to see someone who just wants to be a dentist because its their dreamjob to get in!

Just fyi... I think Midwestern looks highly on high RC scores... so nice job on that. Also, your stellar GPA won't hurt!

I got 17 on RC so I am not sure if that's true.
oh wait...17 is high 😀

 

[Andrew324]

I feel like this is another Waitlisted2009 story, brings back memories 🙂

 

[Oracle DMD]

its pretty true, but its only a fraction of someones app, and by no means a rule. im sure you made up for it 🙂

 

[SuperTank]

According to predents, 17 of the 29 reported RC scores were 20 or higher. But like I said, a strong GPA doesn't hurt🙂

Joon you did it! I told you not to give hope! You deserve it... Just today I was wondering what was up with you... I dont see you on msn anymore! 😛

Hopefully everything with your gf works out too... Long distance is really hard but is doable! I've done it for 4 yrs now and now that Im moving to Boston we'll be closer than when I was in FL but we'll stay 'together' ...

Best of luck colleague 😉
