is this possible

Probably not. The kid is 19.

I don't give a damn, I'm better looking than all of yas.
 
It's definitely possible, there was a 17 or 18 year old in one of the med schools, she already had a MBA before starting in med school...
there are prodigies out there.

LOL
One of my best friends is Korean and he started studying for the SAT at 6, I think.. Got a perfect score.. went to Georgetown and then to their Med-school.. But he just dropped out and decided he wanted to do buisness!!!! OMG.. I still hate him
 
I know these 2 sadistic bastards in my class... one indian/ one paki. One of them took sat 3 times b/c the first time he got 1570, second time 1590 and 3rd time 1600. and one of them took the DAT got almost close to perfect. He never studies. And they score perfect in every exam. They even comepete and finish 3 hour CLAC III exam in 30 minutes even prof. get angry at them. They applied to one school and they got in ridiculous.
 
You really need to only focus on yourself and don't look at anyone else, you know why? Because no matter how good you think you are, there is someone out there better...no matter how smart you are, there is someone out there smarter...no matter how rich you are, there is someone out there richer...it is a futile game to try to be the best...just try to be as good as your dream demands...but i gotta say, damn that 19 yr old is smart...I once shadowed a perio that said he entered NYU dental at age 19, and it was too easy for him, so he wanted to specialize, and did so, yet still didn't find a challenge during residency...unless you're Albert Einstein, don't try to be on top...
 
yeah and michael jordan is amazing at basketball but i tend not to compare myself to him when i play on the local courts... just saying
 
I don't give a damn, I got a bigger tool than all of yas.

what? Who would do such a thing to their kids!! Making them study for the SAT at age 6 WAT THE HECK? are you serious?
 
pDizzle and SDN admins should track entries like that and then post it on SDN if there is an IP with multiple pre-dent/SDN accounts. That way we can bombard that IP until they lose interest in BSing.🙂
 
Some schools use routers. w/ same ips. Some univ. with same wifi so same ip.

So they might be legit entries...
 
Biomedical engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Computer Science : to me sounds like a random selection of fun majors

Calculus 300 TA -> You at least need a B.A/B.S to TA, especially in public IVs

Research 😳rganic chemistry 3 yrs -> Which research group at UVA ?

You know, if you've done all these why not DDS/Phd ? Why not something more fun than dds at VCU???!!!
 
Yeah, that's really my pre-dent profile :banana:

One of my good friends from high school started for our women's soccer team at 16. She was a genius, and an amazing athlete. It is possible...

No ya don't... I was an undergrad TA and there were plenty of them at my uni, especially in the really big classes which lacked grad students

Really? What school did you go to?

University of Illinois

I worked for the chem department teaching chem 102 (the first chem class) which was required for practically every science major, so there were like 60 discussion sections any given semester

They definitely did not have enough grad students for that, especially since they needed the grad students to TA the advanced classes. I think they were borderline desperate when they hired me cuz I wasn't even a chem major and knew significantly less chemistry than the other TAs! Definitely stressful job, but I got free tuition for the 2 year I taught so I ain't complaining lol

I graduated from UVA in 2006, and I never had/heard of anyone having an undergraduate TA. If this is a real candidate, I think he's at least embellishing some of his stats.
 
If the person were real why wouldn't they post when they had interviews at said schools?
