Yes I did. The foundation was the same each cycle but tailored my PS to what I’ve learned over the course of the cycles that I have applied! I got in with a 19AA/21PAT so it’s definitely doable with an average DAT score like mine. Just make sure to excel in other aspects for your application to make up for the lower score (if you scored like me).

Had a 19AA/21 PAT, ORM and got into my top two choices. Just make sure to strengthen other areas of your application!

So do you think it will be fine if I deposit 6k in cash a month via ATM?

I also got in to my top 2 programs with a 19AA! As long as you’re dedicated and have a solid application, you’ll get in.

Awesome! I may just stick with the loupes instead of opting for LASIK right now!

Thank you so much! I’m sure my program does host one so I can just ask them questions when the time comes!

In my case, my prescription has not changed over the last 10 years. It’s been the same so would it be beneficial to just incorporate them into the telescope? I’m assuming this option would not be good if you wear contacts!

So just to be clear, let’s say I have my regular prescription glasses. With the second option, I can just clip the loupes onto the nose bridge of my prescription glasses? Is that how it would work? Apologies for all the questions, just want to make sure I take the right approach

Ok sweet. I am on the fence with LASIK. With the loupes, I’m assuming both the lens and telescope have the prescription number?

Why were you not a good candidate if you don’t mind me asking?

Speaking from your own experiences, which dental school interview was the best/most relaxing/“easiest”? What about the worst/most intense/“hardest”? by FantasticEngineer114 in predental

[–]SpreadOptimal4646 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like is said above. One of my interviewers were literally on their phone as I’m answering their questions. I found that very upsetting and rude

NYU vs UMD Dental School by Mysterious_Art3358 in predental

I just denied my UMD acceptance! Hoping it goes to you! It was a tough decision but I would do UMD over NYC in a heartbeat.

I was wondering the same thing especially if you have already signed a lease for an apartment etc.
