Missed your uploads man! Stay Strong! I'm interested in OMFS as well, currently a D1. I've been following you for a long time throughout my two application cycles and before then near the end of my undergrad career, your youtube channel has always been a breath of fresh air. Not getting in with those stats is crazy! In dental school so far, every non-A hurts a lot, but this video did give me some good perspective that I very well may have to do an internship year (which I'm fully willing to do). Keep us updated brother, it's a very long/tough journey!
Ay thanks man. Yeah, I think it is becoming veryyy common to do an intern year. It'll be worth the grind in the end though. I'm pumped to start in a few months
Hey Trevor glad your back! I’ve been watching you since your first video back in 2017 and you’ve been an inspiration to me since then. I am excited to follow along your future endeavors, I am a ds student interested in OMFS as well.
Honestly not much. I believe that most programs took applicants that had already done an intern year because the upcoming D4 class (me) has missed out on 6 months of clinic time with covid shutdown
heyy trevor. sorry that things didn't work out for you. I know this feeling. i am a dental student living in Egypt and i still have one year left to finish. i am interested in oral surgery residency programs as well. i was just asking since you applied to many programs if you know which programs accept foreign trained dentists with out green card, i would very much appreciate it.
I'm about to do apply for residency in 2 years and I'm studying to get an internship on OMFS this year. The preparation is though af and I really want to go straight out of dental school.
@@trevorwestdds5505 I wish there was some kinda os centralized exam like this in Brazil. I will have to travel to other states to apply and do the exams of each residency. I don't have that kinda of money to apply to 13 programs, but I'll try to apply to, at least, 3 programs. My #1 it's in my city and they offer scholarship, so that'd be a win-win. Also, the normal number of spots per residency here is 2 or 3, so it's it's ridiculously hard.
Ya know Columbia had 16 graduates get into an OMFS residency while OSU graduates didn't get into any. It's seems the selections are similar to federal judicial clerkships. They mostly come from the "top" schools while the mid tier schools send a few. It's so bogus.
Hey do you mind saying what your CBSE score was or atleast give a range? Was it 70+? I'm surprised you didn't match especially since you had a top 5% class rank too.
@@trevorwestdds5505 Thanks! Wow 72 and top 5% class rank! That would be an easy match any other cycle. I saw the match results and apparently way more people applied this year. I'm sure you'll match next cycle. Good luck!
Learn to talk less. If most people are like me, you come out as a conceited self centered "look at me" kind of person. This is repulsive. You are not likeable. Whereas academic performance is important, remember that the residency director is asking themselves, "can I stand this personality in the next 4 ( or 6-,years)?" You may need to improve your CBSE score? What is your current score?
Moral of the story folks, apply to 30+ programs
Congrats on the 10k and getting engaged! You've got a lot of incredible things to celebrate! Happy for you my fellow cougar :)
Hey Trevor, was this internship paid?

Hope it works out

Heck yeah man. OS is an awesome route. The procedures I've been able to do so far with OS have been freaking sweet. I'm pumped to keep learning
Hey man long time supporter here. Happy to see you’re back and in good spirits. You’re gonna kill it. Best of luck keep us updated!
Thanks! Will do
Could you do an NBDE part 2 study video? The part 1 video was excellent.
Welcome back! You're almost there bro!
Yessir. Few more months till we move on baby!
Were you able to reach out to the admissions office to understand why you were not able to match?
So happy and proud of you! Do you think you would have done anything differently in your original application?
Honestly not much. I believe that most programs took applicants that had already done an intern year because the upcoming D4 class (me) has missed out on 6 months of clinic time with covid shutdown
Congratulations on completing dental school! 👏🏾
Is that internship paid?
Hey man did you end up applying to omfs residency yet? Or are you still in your intern year ?
heyy trevor. sorry that things didn't work out for you.

Thanks! And I'm actually not sure about that. Maybe sdn.com could have more insight on that
You have to do some kinda of exam to get into residency or it's purely curriculum based? Here you have to go through both phases
Depends on the residency, OMFS requires the CBSE, ortho requires the GRE
I'm about to do apply for residency in 2 years and I'm studying to get an internship on OMFS this year. The preparation is though af and I really want to go straight out of dental school.
Totally doable right out of school, but you gotta crush the cbse

Good luck man! Yeah that is similar to here as well. Most programs get like 200 to 300 applicants for 2 or 3 spots
Dude I've been waiting for this. So happy you're back!
Dang, it seems like many students are going to be punished due to lost of clinical experience this year.
I'm sure you will match into OMF next time, you are clearly a strong candidate. Go blue!
Thanks a ton! Go bucks baby
Yaaa!! Welcome back man..
Thanks! Been a whiiiiiiile

Yeah no problem. I got a 72. I had another classmate with the same score that didn't match either. This cycle was kinda tough I think with covid

Appreciate your videos. I start dental school in the fall and I’m excited.
Nice man. Congrats on getting in. It's a fun time. Hard work, but so worth it
Like it's been wayyyyy tooo long
it has been so long
Too long amigo
