Biogirl361 said:really?! now my freind called them today and said he sent it out this week, and they told him something to the effect of "well we hope it gets here by the 18th or there may not be anything we can do". how odd that two people can call and get totally different answers! and how they said they'll send a reciept but jini sent hers out a month ago and hasn't gotten a reciept. sometimes I wonder about these schools
I sent my deposit in latge December and I got a confirmation letter January 4th.HuyetKiem said:You folks should send your deposit Overnite or Priority mail then call them a week later to confirm. Never trust your regular mailman for this such important process. Last year, I mailed mine on Dec 10 overnite and confirmed with them the next day's afternoon. I didn't receive my reciept until end of Jan.
It probably comes out of our tuition fee... (I have no idea, I would think the school pays for it).exmike said:hey i noticed the student lounge at the dental school has a widescreen hdtv. does the school pay for HD cable?

I would like to know (this is not something I am considering) - what if I decided not to attend CASE this year, and tell them I want to finish my degree first before I enter their dental school this fall, can they hold a spot for me for fall 2006? - I am just asking. What would happen in this kind of situation, do I start the application process all over (in this case for CASE!)?
Thanks people.

Still dreamin' of OSU, Mo? oops, I wont tell anyone thats a promise

Yes, that was for personal reasons (not academic), but didn't request a year off from CASE... I simply re-applied. I am not planning to take a year-off this time, just curious what would the school's decision be if I had asked.Sprgrover said:Forgive me if I am wrong, but didn't you apply last cycle Mo007 and were accepted to some programs but then held off?
I sent my deposit via Express (next day delivery) today... that takes a load off my head, now that's behind me... I can chill!DDS2BE said:I dropped off my deposit today at Case finally. Did any of you guys notice these weird looks from Case dental students? Well, I did. First time during my interview, and second time today I feel so happy now that I will be giving the same kind of looks to 2010 applicants
Does any1 has the same feeling?

So... what "looks" are you talking about?
by the way, ever considered changing your nick to DMD2BE?!!
Biogirl361 said:Yes DDS2BE!! when we were interviewing i noticed tonnnns of wierd looks from the students, especially when we went to lunch. i did not get this at any other schools. it was the only thing that i didn't like/made me uncomfortable during the interview. that and the city, but all my life experience so far has been in small towns, so I guess that is just something you get used to. anyway, i think most of the wierd looks and smart remarks i got when i was there were from the med students in the caf . none of the other schools i went to shared a building/caf with the med kids, which could explain the lack of dirty looks there
DDS2BE said:BioG, what kind of fish do you have? I really want a salt-water fish tank setup, say 50 gallons, but don't know what to start from
One thing that still keeps me off buying the tank is studying 24/7 in d-school and I still have to look after my cat and a Ball Python
DDS2BE said:Oh boy, can't wait 'till school starts... those med students...
I also noticed Case is still in the process of interviewing its applicants, as it was last week. It just feels like our interview was far in the past
Musketeer, are you a part of dental fraternity? And if yes, then what do you guys do in terms of extra activities and the whole purpose of being a part of it?
That's what I was thinking too... around (early) March.Biogirl361 said:I'm going to do my financial aid stuff during my spring break (week of March 7th). The papers I got at my Case interview say the deadline is April 30, so beginning of March should be plenty early. I just want to be 90% sure that I'm not getting into Michigan before I put Case down on the official paperwork.
Mo007 said:That's what I was thinking too... around (early) March.
I am now 99% sure of attending Case this fall... unless something else comes out of the blue.
At this point, I am also interested to find out any academic scholarships offered by Case? and any other dental education scholarships out-there?

hey, does anyone know if CASE requires us to buy a lap top for school? or does the school require us to buy a lap top from them? thanks
Mo007 said:
does this Case lab take all 70 students at one time? - and does each student get assigned to a seat throughout the program?
That's really nice and convenient.DDS2BE said:Yes, there is wireless network available everywhere throughout Case territory. In fact, Case is one of few schools with Gigabit network

Biogirl361 said:here is the finalized fall schedule you posted last year. i think that one you guys were looking at before was like the first draft and got more classes added later. bummer, i like the first one better
Biogirl361 said:what's a gigabit network
The Musketeer said:Well, for gross anatomy the time there is only for the lecture part...so M, W 3-5 you will be in the cadaver lab. Usually for the 1st semester you will usually end class at 5 pm...and sometimes during your free time you will be doing DentSim. For the 1st semester you will not have any patients, it is just pure studying!
HuyetKiem said:Video camera (recorded on DVD if possible) for your Histo class.
Mo007 said:You mean the lecture videos?
The Musketeer said:For your histo class, the slides identification portion of your exams are usually the slides that the professor will put on to show you near the end of each class, so if you record all the slides, you will be able to recall mostly everything on the exams.
HuyetKiem said:Some useful stuffs in your first semester:
Acland's Video Atlas of Human Anatomy DVD - buy and watch now in your free time
Mo007 said:I am just curious... what are the recent average board scores at CASE, for part 1? - and what % of DMD grads go to specialty programs?
thanks
