I am a med school applicant this year. Anyways, to make a long story short, I got totally fascinated with oral/maxillofacial surgery. It amazes me so much, I can sit there all day and look at the before/after pictures of cleft palate patients and wonder how one can do something like that. I myself had OMFS surgery recently.
So, I am having serious second thoughts about med school and thinking of applying to dental schools next year. I don't know if it's the right choice though and if I can prepare a dental school application in a year. I have no experience working in a dental office, and haven't taken DAT. Also, if you guys have any info regarding OMFS as a career vs. "regular" medical surgery specialties, any info would be appreciated.
