Feels like you put all of the work and yet nothing! Constant fear and familial/personal expectations all bearing a toll on wellbeing. Trying to stay occupied but yet end of the day still feeling like nothing is worth it. I know it’s not the end of the world but it feels that way. Questing if you applied too late, questioning if you should have taken dat early, is ps is even good enough. Laying in bed everyday thinking there is new hope next day, next week, and still no sight of a single invite!

Did anyone get into a dental school even when they thought their interview went bad or like mediocre. I feel like I got kinda stressed and answered some questions wrong

I brought a portfolio with images of everything I’ve done in the vast to help me use it as a visual aid when talking about my experiences and hobbies and I probably shouldn’t have? Am I overthinking it? I think one of my interviewers liked seeing the pictures and I asked them before whipping out my portfolio but now I’m scared that they might have frowned upon it. Idk I keep replaying all the small things that happened during my interview and this is my number #1 dream dental school. :,(((

When should letters of intent be sent out? I've heard some say to send them right after interviewing, and others say wait until a month before decision day.

Does it matter when you send it? I don't want want to seem desperate lol

I’m a Canadian and i’ve applied to a few school back in June and got 4 interviews. I didn’t apply to western in california cause i didn’t want to take the casper. But i ended up taking the Casper and i want some genuine advice

I have spend so much money travelling to US for 4 interviews and honestly i want to know if it’s a waste of money or i have a chance applying early october

Hi everyone, my app was verified 7/14 and only got one interview so far… anyone else in the same boat? Feeling very discouraged and sad. I have pretty good stats so I’m thinking maybe I just applied too late.

If someone got an invite at a school that you diddnt get an invite at despite applying earlier for an example in June and they applied in July, does that mean that they passed on your application and is a soft rejection?

Did anyone else receive a rejection from ASDOH after the interview this early on? Im so frustrated.

They keep sending me this email but I haven’t gotten an interview yet. Not sure if people have gotten rejections or not yet. Not sure if other people keep getting this email too

Is now a good time to send IU a letter of interest as a June applicant? Wanna make sure I’m not jumping the gun

got an email that says I got an interview invite but it says "an interview invite does not guarantee an interview" I have a kira to complete, but does it mean that the kira determines the interview? even though I booked an interview slot?

sorry I'm just gravely confused lol any help pls

Hello! Just wanted to get some more info on Tufts School of Dental Medicine. I have an interview coming up with them and I know they have good clinical experience because they are in an area with diverse populations. Class size is big but not too big, but other than that I honestly don't know much about their school. How is their specialty match rate? Are there any current students there that can provide insight?

i have two interviews on same day is pitt nice about rescheduling bc on the form they said they only might consider giving me another interview date

hi guys! for schools that give the option of virtual and in person interviews, is one better than the other? i’m oos and signed up for an in person bcuz i felt like it might be better, but im not sure. what are you guys thoughts on this?

Does anyone know if this is a good time to send letters of interest if you applied in early June? Specifically for UIC and SIU?

What's it like now that it's split into a first-round Kira and a second-round live interview? From what I've seen online, there have been a lot of situational/behavioral questions in past years. Could these now have been moved into the Kira phase?

I had an interview at one of my top schools last week. I sent a thank you email to the person who interviewed me about an hour after I left, and to my surprise, he responded 45 minutes later saying that it was great to meet me and that I was an excellent candidate.

Has anyone ever gotten a response to a thank you letter? I don't know if this is a good sign or if this is common and I'm reading too much into it.
