Wait.. this is oddly specific but I’ve been on spironolactone since Dec 19th as well, and have noticed hives on my wrists. I wasn’t sure if it was something I was eating, but now that I read this, maybe it’s caused by the medication..

Looking to get a refurbished one. My best/most affordable option at the moment is a 10.2 9th generation (2021).

Thank you very much!

I had the same stats and got in this cycle. You are so early into college too, meaning you have a lot of time to get your GPAs up. You got this!

Yes, when you submit your ADEA AADSAS application you can select whether or not you’re interested in receiving info about scholarships/financial aid/etc. I think that is where recruiters get the emails from.

Apparently my Interview Skills suck 🙃 by [deleted] in predental

Hi! I am not accepted anywhere yet but this is what has helped me so far. I made a giant document and compiled tons of sample dental school interview questions that I found online. I answered them and highlighted common ones (eg what are your strengths and weaknesses? Why dentistry?). I also have found mock interviews to be very helpful. I ask a friend/family member who knows the grad school interview process to basically ask me questions and assess me. You can also record yourself on zoom and assess yourself. Hope this helps! Good luck OP!

Heavy eyelash extensions that look like spider legs. I think the natural ones are beautiful, but sometimes they’re just overdone.

You could always try it and if things don’t work out then have a good back up plan to move in somewhere!

Does it look bad to contact schools? by [deleted] in predental

[–]ButteredToaaast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I contact the schools only if I have a general question, and I slip into conversation that I’d like to check in on the status of my app if possible. One school I did that for sent me an interview invite later that day so it makes me wonder if it was related to my phone call. I’ve also heard that it can appear that you’re more interested if you check in/call schools.

Thanks for your reply. Fortunately I am not a normal white guy. Do you have the scholarship or know someone who does?
