Seems like now I am in that SDN is worthless.
How do you feel?

Unfortunately, all I have learned so far is that everyone has opinions of what to do, say, and act, and I disagree with about 80% of them.atlanta478 said:Youll be surprised how much MORE you could learn here, Pickle Baby.

SDN is only as good as the members that contribute to it.
Hot pickle baby said:So I am making it bad.
Read the other 500 posts on the first page. Poor to say the least.
Hot pickle baby said:AND having moderators that show up out of nowhere to humiliate or belittle users really contributes as well.
However, I do want to seriously ask this question.
If dental school is so darn difficult, please tell me how you have time to be a moderator and what exactly do you get from it?
I mean, its not like being a moderator pays anything and its certainly not going to get you a job.
do you get credit from it ????????????????????????????????????????

Maybe if we could all learn to cuss on this forum, we could stop people from posting stupid posts. It might humble those people who are forever on their soap box. So instead of saying B***** for Bitch or A$$ for Ass, people should just say it like it really is... So here it goes...Blackstars said:Hey no one is going to loose sleep if you quit SDN, so instead of B******* , do something that about it, like posting things you feel are relevevant and helpful.
By the way I agree with what Sprgover said.

Don't forget the thrilling lecture content of most classes. A good chunk of my posts come from inside lecture halls.Sprgrover said:I volunteer my time to SDN, just like everyone else that helps run this site, and no, I get no credit nor extrinsic reward. How do I find the time? Well, a laptop and wireless campus work wonders for accessibility.

Please be advised that an SDN Moderator is about to post. Please don't be surprised or feel belittled by this---it is completely normal.

ItsGavinC said:I'll throw my two cents into the ring. I think SDN is very valuable. There's a ton of information to be had in the Dental forum, and it's always nice to see what students at other schools are doing.
SDN can really help you keep a pulse on dental schools in general, which can be difficult when you're a student and focused on your own little corner of the world.
The dental residency forum is new and expanding and has lots of information about specialty programs.
There may be guests who feel that SDN has done little for them, which probably means they've done little for SDN. It's a community approach, with the content being as great as you make it.

Hes the only mod that deserves it in my opinion.
I have seen these guys give out so much poor advice. A couple of them are only freshmen too. I have no problem with them giving advice, but when I see that they tell people that they need to take the DAT over or take more classes it really makes me mad.
Like they are some sort of great dental experts or something. They told me that I should take the DAT over that my math (13) was just too low.
I DID NOT TAKE THEIR ADVICE.
I received my acceptance letter December 2nd and saved the money and hassle of retaking the DAT.
Thanks for the great advice mods, you were all wrong.....

Mustt Mustt said:I don't really know anybody with 13 in any section of DAT and got in. They all took it again. 13 is not the norm just like under 3.0 is not norm. This may happen from time to time but it is very rare and you can't count on it becasue it would be foolish to sit around waiting for schools to make that exception.
