Hello Everybody,

I found out about the website, Predents.com and wanted to know how helpful and correct it is. Kindly please inform me how much you guys rely on this website and what kind of information you recommend I glean from it. THank you.

The statistics on predents.com are taken DIRECTLY from the ADEA guide. I was the one who compiled them, so I know.

In terms of the stats of the students themselves, well, there are going to be liars in the bunch, or people who don't report their scores at all. I think what most people use it for is to quickly reference the ADEA numbers and then just spy on who got interviews where, and possibly what their scores are.

At least that's what I do 🙂

I dont really have too much experience with the website as of yet. I basically went on the website and clicked in entering class of 2008 and then picked the schools that I was interested in. It gave me information about how many students applied and the statistics. Do you have to become a member of the website? You are talking aboutADEA numbers, what is that? I am not a member of as yet and only used it once for that information that I described above. Am I using it right?

I've noticed some discrepancy in tuition. Although that isn't predent's fault if that was the tuition that was reported.

Just double check by going to the school's website to see what their tuition rates are for this upcoming year. Books, fees, ect can also add to the cost.

 

[lemoncurry]

The tuition rates quoted on predents.com are ONLY for tuition. They do not account for books, fees, instruments, etc. It's rather silly, but it is easier to do it that way than to try and calculate the total cost, because you can't use the same criteria for each school and you never know which costs are just estimates and which are mandatory.
