      Passing the DAT is when you study hard,if you can't study or you don't have time for your studies I'd advise you get yourself help like Mr Thomas

      I have a cousin who never studied much,we studied together but she gives most of her time to her phone than studies after writing DAT last month, she passed and I failed😣, I asked her how she did it, just found out she got her help from Mr Thomas ..

    Omg this is so discouraging for me :( I’m at undergrad rn but my gpa isn’t anywhere near a 3.8 . I don’t have any research experience either 😭😭. If you got denied I for sure will at all

      nooo don't be discouraged. everyones app is viewed differently. For example, my friend had a 3.8 GPA but a 20AA and received an interview from columbia. A 3.5 GPA and a 20-21AA will get you several interviews, just be sure to apply to many schools

    Hey Jasmine, I was wondering what you meant by "Dental experience". I have seen this on many Dental School websites, does this mean shadowing hours or paid work in a dental office?

    • @jasmineahrar
      @jasmineahrar  Před 5 lety +3

      Dental experience can be anything dental related! Shadowing is definitely required, any other experience you have in a dental office (sterilizing, assisting, or other tasks)or even with dental insurance or research is great to have on your application too, these can be paid or volunteer.

    Hi! Thank you for posting this video. If I may ask, how did you get dental experience before applying to dental school? Also, how did you prep for the DAT and what was it like?

    • @jasmineahrar
      @jasmineahrar  Před 5 lety +2

      Hi Zoe! Thank you so much for your comment :) glad you enjoyed the video. I got dental experience by first shadowing a dentist, then established a good relationship with the dentist and staff by coming in to shadow really regularly. They allowed me to begin helping out with sterilization and eventually I started working as a dental assistant for the same organization. Hope that answers your question. As for the DAT, I will definitely be making a video on this with a lot more info in the future. But the biggest help for me was Chad's Videos (aka CourSesaver)!

    @tokenjoy Před 3 lety

    Well, I went to dental school back in the Stone Age (early 80s). I'm sure a lot has changed, but one thing that appears the same is the preference of state schools for in-state applicants. I went to Temple Dental and 95% of my class were Pennsylvania residents. I was a resident of Delaware and was shocked when I was accepted.

    Hey Jasmine! I am 16 years old and have been looking into settling on dentistry as a career plan after an enlightening conversation with my dentist. I am a US citizen, but I live outside of the states: in a little US territory called Saipan. I'm pretty worried about the costs and what college/university and major I should get into if I do decide on moving forward with dentistry. Any tips or advice you can give me?

    • @jasmineahrar
      @jasmineahrar  Před 5 lety

      Armando Nodal when you start dental school you will get your loan dispersement, it covers tuition and living expenses. All the dental students I know are living off of the loans during school. Hope that helps!

    • @jasmineahrar
      @jasmineahrar  Před 5 lety

      It depends on the program you end up going to, because they estimate what your living expenses will be. In my case, the loans covered tuition (approx $90K this year) and I got roughlyyyyyy $40K this year for living expenses. This is for rent, food, other living expenses and for some required school supplies (like loupes which are $2K, our iPads, scrubs, etc). Most people I talked to in my program got the same. KEEP IN MIND THIS HAS TO BE PAID BACK WITH INTEREST! And each year might vary, and this amount will vary program to program and person to person.

    • @jasmineahrar
      @jasmineahrar  Před 4 lety +1

      My advice is to stay focused on what you can do right now. Right now just work on learning all that you can in middle school so that you are prepared for high school :) all you can do is put in the time and do your best, and if you do that you are sure to get in to a college. I find that when I think about all the “what ifs” in my future, I get really stressed out. Sometimes you just have to take things one day at a time. I hope that helps 🙏

    • @jasmineahrar
      @jasmineahrar  Před 2 lety

      As long as you meet the minimum requirements for shadowing you should be good to apply! But I do think the more experience the better. Hope this helps!
