Hi!! Thank you so much for this video i’m taking my DAT in a few weeks and this video really made me motivated to grind it out! I was wondering where do you attend dental school? I am having a hard to deciding where to apply to

3.81 GPA, 19 AA 19 TS, 19 PAT. But I did score a 17 on Bio 😢 Do you recommend retaking my DAT?

Dental is becoming like pharmacy school where anybody will get in like law and pharmacy school so easy to get in. I heard optomery isn’t as competitive as dentistry. BUT dental school is becoming like pharmacy school foshooo

I'm in the same boat as you were! What did you do in your 2 gap years to improve your application?
@irina.pepper Ай бұрын
hi! i worked in a pediatric dental office, tried to continue volunteering semi-regularly, took two extra classes (immunology + another bio class), and reallyyyy focused on the DAT and doing the best I could in that

I volunteered with an organization in Washington DC because I really liked their mission :) so just find something that you connect with and care about - it won’t feel like a “chore” at that point, you’ll feel happy doing it

hi! it's coming i promise :) for now just keep pushing through, start practice exams *earlier than you think* and anki bio flashcards really helped me in that section. i know it sucks a lot but you can do it i promise!

Would you recommend me joining the honors college at my school? I know I’m not going to my first semester but I can always transfer. Or are honors classes not really a major factor in dental school admissions. I think it would be better to maintain a high non honors GPA but I’m unsure.
@irina.pepper Ай бұрын
hi! ask your advisors or any pre-health (dental/med/PA) students around you! I would say an honors program would be good as long as your grades are still strong. I think you're making the right move by doing a semester non-honors and seeing how it goes! good luck, you got it :)

Thank you Irina, Good info I'm working on my stuff to apply to dental school. I have not taken it yet I was thinking of taking it at the Community college to transfer it in maybe. I am majoring in bio in pre-dental. what dental school did you get into?
@irina.pepper 3 ай бұрын
hi! I go to Roseman University in Utah! I'm not sure if community colleges offer Orgo because it's an upper-level chemistry class, but if they do I would still take it at your school because schools prefer (and some possibly only accept it? you'll have to research this) it from 4 year universities
