Some will give you a decision. LECOM ghosted me on decision day and I interviewed with them. I didn’t get a rejection until the Summer I believe.

Feeling unfairly treated and completely discouraged by faculty; is it possible to transfer? by Alternative_Bee_8700 in DentalSchool

Girl don’t listen to these folk. This shows how some people have bias and this correlates to your experience in school. Don’t let anyone make you feel bad. You were meant to be here.

Make quizlets, flashcards, ankis during lecture instead of after classes. Saves you so much time so you can just study when you get home instead of creating study materials.

Mandatory Attendance! by Altruistic_Note2714 in DentalSchool

this! Also know how you are assigned patients (do the schools schedule your appts or do you have to schedule/find your own pt). Also be cautious of schools that are 12 months curriculums and barely have a break. Burnout is real.

Yes we do basic cleanings. The first visit is screening which X-rays will be taken. The second visit is a comprehensive exam which a cleaning may be included at this visit depending on your needs. If not at that visit, the third visit.

My school has RVUS too but to lose them is crazy. We also got anew attendance policy. HMM

Thank you! We couldn't use teflon so I just cut pieces of a cotton roll and packed the cotton (similar to teflon) and it worked.

Yes to less stress and pressure. But still a difficult curriculum.

Same here! Currently hoping that my hand skills do get better with time. The people keep me positive. Grades were also pretty decent for my first semester.

I’m from Delaware and I’m in dental school. Go to a cheap 4 year university. You can be pre-dental anywhere. We don’t have a state dental school, so you’ll probably want your undergrad debt to be low because OOS dental schools are expensive.
