    Yay!! I'm currently in the DA program at PF school. so far so good. its just the charting was a little confusing for me. I choose this program because I'm familiar with PF school and the program is affordable. I just cannot wait for hands on experience I learn better that way! thanks for sharing! its refreshing hearing someone mentioning their experience on the same school you're attending online as well,

    Hey been looking for online dental assistant courses and been doing my research and your video came up. I see it’s been two years ever since but I was wondering how did it worked out for you? Are you still persuading this career? Do you still recommend the online course that you took? Is there any way we can get in contact ? I would really like your advice. Im the first person in my family to even want to get a online certificate or go to college and I need advice and some guidance. Thank you! I really hope I get a response.

    • @PlainMariah
      @PlainMariah  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Honestly I’ve seen way more female assistants than males. I met two male doctors, but usually they try not to base anything off of gender. Patients seem to not prefer anyone specific from what I noticed, but again it was only female assistants everywhere I went.

      JazzieJeff Barham I’m sure you’ll be great! No need to be nervous. I also looked into TH-cam videos showing everything that is done to get a better visual with everything. The pay start for regular DA’s is $14 from all the places I’ve looked at/ been to. A lot of places have a high turn over for DA’s as well so you’ll see a lot of job postings every now and then. They recommend going for hygienists after dental assisting for better pay though.

    Did you do all the exams online or did you have to take them at a specific place ?

      @PlainMariah  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Take them at a specific place for the certificate. Due to covid it could have changed I’m not sure. You can check that out online by looking up your state requirements. All the school exams were online.

      You’ll take it after the program in a test center. You have to apply through the website first. www.danb.org/exams/exam/cda-exam.
