Are any of you guys waitlisted at Indiana? I haven't contacted them because of their email they sent right after they sent all the waitlists. What do you think would be the best approach for indy?

Didn't apply there, but did they specifically say they absolutely do not want you to contact them?

Is anyone planning on reapplying for the upcoming cycle?

Is anyone planning on reapplying for the upcoming cycle?

I can't decide. [emoji21] on one hand I can't picture myself doing anything else. On the other, this was my third cycle and second time being on the waitlist and I don't know if I can survive another cycle

If you don't mind me asking, what have you been doing in your couple of gap years?

I've started to rewrite my personal statement, but hopefully I won't need to use it to resubmit. I plan on retaking my DAT for a third time IF I don't get in.

I did (and rocked) a Masters, applied, worked as an assistant and continued volunteering, eventually rejected, applied again, am still working as an assistant, and volunteering, but I'm also getting a business management certificate at a community college.

Any other news?

I’m planning to reapply this cycle. My story of why I want to become a dentist hasn’t changed‍. What do u all suggest for my personal statement? Should I just update my experiences or completely redo the entire thing including my story?

I’m planning to reapply for the third time 🙁 the first time I applied I only applied to two schools. My story of why I want to become a dentist hasn’t changed‍♀ What do u all suggest for my personal statement? Should I change the wording of it or completely take that section out ? Anyone been through this ?

Hard to say without reading it. If you want, you can shoot me a dm of your ps and I can tell you what I think

Well, have you done anything this past year to reinforce your interest in dentistry?
