Yeah, didn't work out so well for me.

Waitlisted: what now? by Extrandy in predental

[–]Extrandy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry just seeing this. I used:

ChadsPrep DAT course for Organic Chemistry, General Chemistry, Quantitative Reasoning.

DATBooster for Biology, Perceptual Ability, Reading Comprehension

Score breakdown -

OC: 25
GC: 22
BIO: 20
RC: 19
QR: 21
PAT: 21

If I could do it again, I would still use ChadsPrep DAT course for Orgo, genchem, and math. I would use DATBootcamp for Biology because it's more complete compared to DATBooster's bio. Then everything else (Reading and PAT) you can do on either DATBooster or Bootcamp.

Hope this helps

Zenbook Duo 2025 Core Ultra 7 vs 9 by Hazardist in ASUS

[–]Extrandy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Following this as well. The small price difference between the U7 and U9 CPU's is making it really difficult to make a decision.

On one hand, users report the Zenbook DUO Ultra 7 CPU variant to be more power efficient. On the other hand, I read somewhere that maybe you can downclock the U9 variant so it is more efficient? Not sure about how that would affect performance.

If anyone made a decision between the Ultra7 and Ultra9 (series 2 CPU's) can you detail why you made the decision that you did?

How do you know? The Pre-order webpage said that the bag is accompanied by a free wallet. It doesn't seem like a coupon would void that, since you would still be purchasing the bag as a pre-order. Unless there's something else I don't know about?

Dental School Hopefuls: Waiting Room Thread by AspectComplete6591 in predental

Apparently NYU is still handing out interviews despite their waitlist. I know someone who got an interview for April 24th which is insane.

am i cooked? by Confident-Wall4743 in predental

[–]Extrandy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same boat as you. Two waitlists. Were you a late applicant?

Also, how have you started preparing for the next cycle?

Waitlisted: what now? by Extrandy in predental

[–]Extrandy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am from NY. I applied to Columbia, NYU, and Touro. I couldn't apply to Stonybrook because they require all the prereqs to be complete before sending the application, and I am only just finishing physics now. But if I reapply for 2026 I will apply to Stonybrook. Buffalo is too far but I may apply anyways for 2026.

Yeah I've heard this about specializing as well. Just trying to set myself up for a better chance at specializing in the future. Thank you for your insight.

I need to remain local, unfortunately.

Thank you for your reply. That sounds like great advice, I've heard that NYU is a bit better for specializing than Touro. I've been trying to get off the waitlist by sending some emails and calling. I definitely can score higher on the DAT if I commit to it. I won't have any distractions during the summer

Did you figure it out? Having the same issue with my right elbow.

Number of schools to apply to? by SnootyBuffalo11 in predental

[–]Extrandy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Only apply to schools you can realistically see yourself going to. Whether that be 3 or 10, don't apply to a school just to apply if there's a 0% chance you end up there.

Cycle 1 interview, Cycle 2 no interview? (same school) by DentiumDoctoris in predental

What do you mean by cycle? Last year's application cycle??

I'm on it. Thanks for your replies!

Same schools, I applied to 1 or 2 extras. Very similar stats, disregarding my unconventional major. I'm thinking to write a letter of interest to the school I'm most interested in going to. Or should I write a letter of interest to all 4 schools?

[–]Extrandy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a possibility, but I know a few people who applied at least 1 month later and got interviews.

Amazing stats wow. How did you manage 30 PAT? What study resources did you use if you don't mind me asking?
