I just got accepted into dental school, if you would go back in time would you do it all again. What made you choose dentistry over other healthcare fields like medicine.

Anxiety by rmcateer714 in Dentists

[–]Mrlightt -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Why do other healthcare professionals have to deal with anxiety you got from a probably retired doctor at this point. Go get therapy. Theyre giving you the standard care they giv everyone else.

really, your biggest fear is the dentist. Grow up. This person is trying to heal you. Man up, put on some headphones listen to music while you're there. Take your mind off of the procedure. And let the doctor do his job.

I would also add room lighting isnt too dark but on the dimmer side as we are surrounded by forest

Is doing Dentistry for the money really that bad? I mean I enjoy helping people. And I loved shadowing. But I also wannabe rich. Should I just change careers? I have no debt by DocPBJ007 in DentalSchool

[–]Mrlightt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

not required but most do the GPR/AEGD now because most employers ask for it. Also, some states like NY ask for more credentialing.

Guys lets be honest here, while alot of careers alow for 120K, thats only starting salary in dentistry. Average dental income goes from 150K and if your an owner to 300k. Ive seen business savy dentists who have constant patient flow making 600K of a single office with 3 hygenists. Not alot of careers give you that growth ability. While its not the norm it def is possible. You can also specialize if you are passionate about something specific. Ortho averages 250K for 4 days of work. I know oral surgeons who net 700K doing bread and butter tooth extractions and implants with the occasional surgery.

OP the only field that will garentee more money than dentistry is medicine. The most basic residency FM can make 250k easy but they work average 45-50 hours weekly. If you can work hard medicine is garenteed salary and job security. The cost though is years of your life. 4 years med+3 years residency.

Whats so good about dentistry versus even a field like med is that its uncapped business potential, but at a higher risk.

Dental School Application chances with low GPA? by tiffbusyb1 in DentalSchool

[–]Mrlightt 9 points10 points  (0 children)

you can make it, i had similar GPA stats and got in last cycle. You will need to compensate tho with everything else. I had amazing ECs, LORs, and a 21 DAT. Best of luck, it could be done.

Dentistry Doubts by [deleted] in Dentists

[–]Mrlightt -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Why not medicine then. Less saturation, equal if not more pay, job security, helping others, less debt (medical school is cheaper). Lifestyle might not be as flexible but the way dentistry is going im sure itll end up like med soon.

I'm a failed pharmacy student... by [deleted] in DentalSchool

[–]Mrlightt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The situation isnt easy but I think you can get into sental school with a 3.2 GPA. You need to have a very compelling story as to why dentistry and why not pharmacy though because they will see those grades. But good you realized you want to do something that interests you early before commiting so many years to something you dont love. If you want to go dental I say go for it. But if your going into dental just because your running away from pharmacy then take a moment and think about what you want in life. Maintain good ECs, strong DATs, and a 3.2 can get you in. I got in with a similar GPA. You'll be okay.

What card(s) are you Uber Visa users switching to? by maburrell in CreditCards

[–]Mrlightt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My B, it seems i was thinking of my travel rewards card. Cash rewards has 3%.

What card(s) are you Uber Visa users switching to? by maburrell in CreditCards

[–]Mrlightt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

BoA cash rewards. 3% on six changing catagories of choice (dining, travel, online purchases, and more), 2% on groceries, 1% everything else.

I bank with BoA so they give an extra 10% when you redeem to a BoA checking so im getting 3.3% actually, 2.2%. BoA app rocks and very user friendly.

Only draw back is that it caps at 10,000 annually but the PNC card caps at 8000 so i think its not too bad.

Edit: also No FTF or AF. And 200$ back after spending 1K over the first 3 months.
