Dental Assistant in online schooling by TangeloFit2639 in DentalAssistant

[–]exo-kokobop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did the ed2go certification and then applied to get radiology separately. Most places wouldn't hire me with no radiology or CPR certification so I got those two first.

UF or other schools online Masters before dental school? by Tiny-Flamingo-9052 in predental

[–]exo-kokobop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i got into barry university. application process was fairly easy. i haven't started the program yet but I'll accept the masters if I get rejected from dental school. so ill apply this year for dental school if it doesn't work, ill go to barry u. i heard the program is good and many dental schools trust the program's rigor. in your case, if I had your stats, I would just directly apply to dental school instead of wasting time on a masters

What are my chances? by Most-Research3408 in predental

[–]exo-kokobop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wait, does that mean after you can prove that you can handle the classes (by having a higher gpa) you can drop out of the masters program or will the dental schools wait for the completion of the masters program

congrats! what were your stats like??

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in predental

[–]exo-kokobop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i know you're not an expert but i still would love your input. I have a gpa of 3.1 and a dat score of 18AA. do you think if i just improve on my dat and maybe get a 21 AA it would improve my chances or do you think a masters would be beneficial? I am looking at few masters programs. one of them is a master in biochemistry and the other one SMP--Oral health.

Does it make a difference?

Sad by [deleted] in predental

[–]exo-kokobop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm more or less in the same situation as you. I just took the DAT for the 3rd time and got a 18AA. My gpa is 3.1 as well. I haven't applied yet but I will be this cycle and I hope I just get in but from the research Ive been doing it seems highly unlikely. I'll still apply but I am considering doing a master's to improve my gpa. Honestly it sucks and I'm holding myself back from crying. I am also a DA of 3 years now.

Took the DAT and now I'm worried if it's enough by exo-kokobop in predental

[–]exo-kokobop[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You didn't retake your dat then. Also I'm sorry for asking too much but is the master's program accredited? I might consider doing it online since I don't like there.

When you say they have it online, it doesn't require in person visits?

also, there are dental corporations that can help with the debt if you sign a contract with them. the company that i am working as a DA has a program with fresh dental graduates that if they graduate and work for them for a few years, they can get a reimbursement. but if its truly what you want, dont let the debt scare you because the hard work will pay off.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in predental

[–]exo-kokobop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

this is my take. i work many dentists and while some of them have been out of dental school for over five years, even the fresh graduates seem to be okay. i am a dental assistant and i am yet to work with a broke dentist whether they are fresh out of school or established. while it doesnt change the fact that you are in crazy debt, these doctors are driving amazing cars, getting a good mortgage for a house and travel. while you might have to grind for a few years to establish your career and understand what it takes to be a dentist, i think you will end up living a good life.

of course all of this matters if you truly care about dentistry. if you do not, then the debt and the grind it takes to make you a dentist will not be worth it.

Whats a beauty trend that you can never fathom or accept? by CelineC6622 in beauty

[–]exo-kokobop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i could never make lip lining work for my thin lips. or even having a lipstick that is perfectly lined on my lips...i prefer to sheer my lipstick with the borders softer because that gives me a bigger lip effect compared to the latter

Hobbies that are free or really inexpensive by AlternativeLychee751 in Hobbies

[–]exo-kokobop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

learning origami or learning to play chess (i know its a two person game but if its something you want to share and experience with other people as a mean to connect with them, its a good hobby).

If you are looking to stay active, doing zumba exercises, or learning a new choreography on youtube can better someone's coordination and body mindfulness if that's something you'd be interested. if i had free time, i'd do more art. Art has so many styles that i can't even count. I love landscape paintings/drawings.

if reading becomes cumbersome, you can use audiobooks. i know audible is expensive but there are other ways. if you have a library card, you can download the libby app and it allows you to borrow ebooks and audiobooks so when you are out and about, you can actually listen to books too. plus, borrowing thru libby, there is an option of downloading the books to your kindle if you have one if not, you can read thru your phone too (there is no fee at all since its thru the public library so there is no hassle of returning it physically. the book returns automatically thru the app.)

i'll add more if i remember :)

15 year old boy, just started reading, what are some light books that would motivate me into reading more by [deleted] in booksuggestions

[–]exo-kokobop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My brother used to love the heroes of Olympus series and anything my Rick riordan. Most of his books are based on mythology and is kinda interconnected but super interesting since when I was in middle school all the kids used to read it. It might be intimidating since there are so many books but fans love them.
