I failed 3 times, i lost money to reviews that never helped but the major thing is that I've not lost hope

i'm sorry for your plight my friend but i was once in your shoes before i was recommended to Mr Thomas and thats how i passed DAT

I had interest in working with him but I was discouraged by my friends out of ignorance 😔

Sometimes hard work doesn’t pay you have to back it up with smartness🤓, I think your cousin understood that perfectly

Please does anyone know who this Mr Thomas is? I really need to speak with him I’m frustrated.

im interested!

The loupes companies are all pretty similar as far as how their reps are. They want you to buy their product. That being said, the reps I've worked with were all pretty good at letting me look at their display pairs, try things on, go back and forth, and really try to guess what I thought would be good for me. At this point I would highly recommend a pair of ergonomic loupes. Many companies have them, but they will be great for your posture and help reduce pain. For normal loupes, I would recommend at least 3.5x, and if you're doing ergo loupes, I'd go even higher since your working distance will be different. Ask some of your upper classmen that are close to your same height to try on their loupes to get a better idea of what something is like. I hope these ramblings make sense. Feel free to reach out to me on instagram @doctor.henderson if you have more questions about loupes.

That isn't an easy thing, but I wish you the best in your journey! Let me know if there are any other questions you have!

Just wait until you get to spend another $3100 (or more) for your licensure exams in dental school! Not to mention whatever boards is!

I never knew that, why is it si expensive@@connorhenderson5396

Overall I had a good experience in school! I really enjoyed and succeeded with the block curriculum. While I know there are things that I didn't get much (or any) experience with in dental school, I feel confident in my ability to do the basics of dentistry. Could you get a better clinical experience at another school? Absolutely. Are there cheaper schools? Yep. But based on my personal situation, Roseman was a good fit. That being said, the 3 year program will be a HUGE adjustment, and those students will be missing out on 800 or so clinical hours compared to those of us who were in the 4 year program. But, as I'm sure you know, its one less year of loans and interest accumulating, one more year of a salary, and if you really felt unprepared, you could go and do an AEGD/GRP and gain experience and confidence in more advanced procedures. Let me know if you have any more specific questions, I'm here to help!

Thank you! Are you a dental student?

It really really is! Are you in dental school?

Not yet I’m preparing for the DAT

@@Marvellous-grace Good luck preparing for the DAT!

@@connorhenderson5396 thanks 🙏🏽

I think for all parts/sections it is $3100, and then maybe some more if your school charges a facilities fee (maybe $500), then add in practice teeth (another couple hundred depending on how many you get).

Thank you so much! Please share it with all your pre-dental friends!

I'm in Ghana and has informal dental experience. I wish to come to America to learn more about dentistry

Thanks so much Andrew, I appreciate that! Where are you at in your journey to become a dentist?

@@connorhenderson5396 i m American. But got my degree in egypt - now i m to take the inbde yet in april , to apply for advanced program hopefully , what about you ?

A big part of it was just the repetition of writing thousands of questions. I got to the point where I could write 4-5 different types of questions about 1 thing so I more or less just became a machine. But I'll think about doing a video with a couple of tips to help out. You're the first person who has expressed any interest, so thank you!

@@connorhenderson5396 I would like to hear more about using Kahoot too. I am a junior pre-dental student and so far I have used Anki. I've done the same thing where I create 4-5 questions on each topic, but it still takes a long time (and I am not even creating answer choices as you do with Kahoot). Anyways, I would love to hear any tips that you have that help to speed up the process. Keep up the great work--I just found your channel and it is super helpful. Blessings, Jake

Thanks for that! I'm not sure if that changed since now they are gaining more users or if that's always how it was but this is great to know!

I'm sure it could and has been done, but it would be a really big undertaking. That being said, you know what you're strengths, weaknesses are and your determination so it could be done. Understand that it would be really hard but possible. Then again, I'm just some stranger on the internet trying to help. Good luck! Let me know if you have any other questions!

Course objectives are great to help guide your notes and studying! I was just too lazy and wanted to avoid hand cramps so I didn’t do hand written but for some people that’s the only way they can take notes.

I think UoP does have a 3+3 program but even if you do undergrad somewhere else, UoP’s dental program is 3 years.

@@connorhenderson5396 I have been knowing UoP offered only 3+3 (more selective joint program), 3+4, and regular 4-year dmd program. Good to know! Is this a sign that due to the changed format of the board exam (from two separate ones into one integrated which focuses on clinical rather than detail oriented questions), dental schools deem it okay to shorten the program because the exam has become, maybe, easier?

@@보톡스날라리-s7u From what I know, UoP has been 3 years for a really long time (if not always?). I don't think it has anything to do with boards. One of our deans used to be at UoP and I think was a big fan of the 3 year program, which is why Roseman has switched. I don't think many, if any, schools will follow and switch to 3 years.

@@connorhenderson5396 Thank you for your response…I was wondering if the 3-year program was like a trend thing due to the boards, but I guess not. But it brings up a question: wouldnt all predents want to apply to Roseman and UoP then? Its shorter (possibly cheaper).

@Z Malek I believe 3-year programs have similar tuition as 4-year programs, and thus the only upside is finishing one year earlier. Are 3-year programs more rigorous then? I believe it is natural to assume it is, but I want to know if in fact it really is.

I don't remember a score from bootcamp, but I think from board vitals my score was 77%, which was after seeing the questions multiple times. I've known students that were scoring similar to you and passed. Don't be too surprised if you don't feel great when you take your exam. I didn't but it all worked out. Good luck!

@@connorhenderson5396 OK awesome thank you so much! you made me feel a lot better!

Thanks!!! I got it at my school! It was a fundraiser that was done.

Thanks! Did you apply this cycle?
