Earlier today a friend and I were reflecting on our days in dental school. We were trading "war stories" about how hard dental school at the University of Tennessee had been when we attended a few years ago. It seemed each of us tried to outdo the other with a hardship story worse than the one that had just been told.
This always seems to happen. Get two dentists in the same room and inevitably the story will turn to their respective time in dental school. The yarns are woven with bits of humor, anger and always with exaggeration. At the end of the day both parties will agree it was all worth it but they would never do it again!
I could not help but think of this while sitting in my recliner, jack russell at my side, working on my latest project. Over the past several months my new creation http://www.go2dentalschool.com/ has come to life. From an outsourced website design up to the current content placement it has been a tough but rewarding process.
My goal was to create a website for the individual interested in applying to dental school. When I was going through the application process over 18 years ago the internet did not exist. I had to rely on a pre-dental advisor for information. This is pretty scary now that I think about it. I pretty much handed my hope for a future in dentistry over to a person I hardly knew.
Looking back there is some recollection of taking the Dental Admissions Test (DAT) and filling out a couple of applications but it is fuzzy at best. In the past everything was done on paper and by "snail mail" so you would think that information about this process would be readily available and organized. Not so! Information on applying to dental school is scattered, unorganized and, at times, out of date.
http://www.go2dentalschool.com/ has set out to change this!
http://www.go2dentalschool.com/ is an exclusive membership site created for the pre-dental student. It offers information regarding pre-dental requirements, the Dental Admissions Test (DAT) and the application process to dental school in one organized, easy to use location.
So if you or someone you know is exploring the idea of going to dental school have them check us out at http://www.go2dentalschool.com/.
