Cool. Guess we'll get one up Sunday evening or so. Sarah, hopefully I speak for all of us when I say "we'll leave it to you! ;-)"
 
Good luck to everyone here waiting. I feel like I'm in Times Square counting down and waiting for the ball to drop when I visit this thread. I am starting dental school in the fall and am very interested in pediatic dentistry and was wondering if you guys and gals could give me some insight. Currently I am trying to decide between Loma Linda and UNLV but also waitlisted at ASDOH and U. at Buffalo and I'm wondering which school might give me more experience with pediatrics and/or possibly a better in road to pediatrics over the others? After going through the process this year and with all your wealth of knowledge and wisdom from being in D school for four years I would appreciate any advice you have. PM or post and I'll check back here. Thanks!

To be honest, I don't think the school matters. Do well where ever you go, get involved with the pediatric dentistry dept there, and apply. Even more importantly, try to do some dentistry on kids, and see if you like it.
 
Hey all,

I just found a new blog started by a current pediatric resident that's pretty interesting. It doesn't say what program he's in, but definitely a unique perspective on what we have to look forward to! Can't wait for results of the match. Just a few more days!!

Are any of you hearing from schools? I just heard from Jacobi, saying my application was complete and that it will be under review. Are you all getting similar emails from schools? I would imagine it is just common courtesy. Oh, well. It beats a rejection letter.
Hey , You got the email from Jacobi... Did you already send all your supplemental information in?
Thanks!
 
For those who have successfully matched last cycle and are still active on the forum, please consider contributing to the "Pediatric Residency Program Overview" thread . Hopefully being a few months into your program, you've seen and are knowledgable enough to share your opinions with us pedo hopefuls. Thanks for considering!
