I agree, but my only concern is that the NBME covers material from the first 2 years of medical school that isn't covered in dental school (i.e., psychiatry, etc.). This puts those who are at a dental school who do the first 2 years of medical school at an obvious advantage. Also, many OMFS programs have you do 2nd year of medical school. What would be the point of doing 2nd year if you already were required to learn the information to get in to an OMFS program? The exam needs to be revised so that it can be catered to those with a basic science background that is provided in a DENTAL curriculum.
Having to take the MCAT is insulting IMO
This is a poor reflection of USC and the programs inability take care of their own. Instead they're letting their residents and applicants get jerked around by the medical student.
