Thank you! I hope so too!!!
My dad was actually getting a root canal one day and was talking to the doctor about how I wanted to be a dentist and he said that one of his current assistants was unlicensed and was leaving for dental school soon, so they were looking for someone to replace her! He was basically just in the right place at the right time I guess!!!

hello! Thank for sharing your story. May I ask which state do you work at? I also work as an assistant with an oral surgeon unlicensed and I have some questions. Do you mind if I PM you?

Just got an invite for virtual interview prep for CU, what goes that mean?

I got it as well. Its just a interview prep session I hear they're pretty helpful but I don't believe it has any bearing on whether you'll receive a actual interview.

Which dates were you offered to schedule your interview?

Gymgivitis said:
Right but I don’t see where on that portal it’d show admission status. It just shows a bunch of checks and dates things were submitted.

Here's where you check the MWU portal. I found my interview the same way by randomly checking.
