I feel like I am forced to choose between moving to a random state like ohio, random to me no offense ohio residents, or applying to dental schools in the NYC area. I like dentistry and have always questioned whether or not to just be a dentist and forget this stuff, but for some reason I have just always assumed just get my MD, and play it by ear...
But now that it looks like my second year of rejections, I am starting to lean towards dentistry, just because i am tired of being rejected, and of not really doing anything productive since i have graduated.
I think that my stats (28/3.6) are good enough to get me in in a relatively less competitive state like Ohio, but not good enough to get me into a North east area school, although I have been applying as an out of stater, from CT. I got 5 ints, 2 waitlists (gtown and einstein) after applying to around 20 schools.
In the immediate future, I am going to apply again as a NY resident and see how I do in the SUNYS and other ny schools. But after this, my 3rd time, I feel like it is time for drastic action... and Im wondering which of those drastic options you guys would choose? Move to Ohio or go dentistry?
THats what ive boiled it down to, so let me know what u think, thanks.
