DENTAL SCHOOL ACCEPTANCE REACTIONS!

[@11ellie7]

Why didn’t you both go to UPenn if you both got in?

[@thedentalduo]

Hey! It was a really tough decision. We both got into UPenn and Maryland Dental. However, we heavily took finances into consideration. Maryland offers instate tuition after the first year making it a more affordable for Kathleen and UPenn offered me the scholarship making it my cheaper option. We also considered travel distance and realized it was feasible to see each other every weekend while in dental school. Finally, we wanted to attend schools that valued clinical and hands-on experiences and from what we heard, both programs excelled in this. All in all, we're happy with our decisions and both love our programs!

I can feel the stress of those years of hard work just being let go letter by letter. Congratulations! You both deserve it and I am sure you will both be great doctors!

[@thedentalduo]

Haha! Yeah it definitely felt good to finally have the hard work pay off. Thank you so much! This comment made our day!

This video was so genuine, just watching how you guys went through different emotions was very emotional! I almost had happiness tears for you! Fingers crossed for my acceptance day this year, on Dec 13, interviewed at 9 already. Hoping to have a similar experience as you guys!

[@thedentalduo]

Thanks Del, we appreciate it bro

[@MariaSanchez-fz6ui]

Hi guys! This is my 3rd time watching this video, it’s so amazing to see your reactions. Currently interviewing for the upcoming cycle🥰

[@thedentalduo]

Thank you so much for the support! We are both rooting for your success!! Keep us updated on your progress and good luck!

[@MariaSanchez-fz6ui]

@@thedentalduo Of course and thank you so much!! I will!

[@Sfoli]

What are your GPA/DAT scores?

[@thedentalduo]

I received a 23 AA 24 TS DAT score and graduated with a 3.97cGPA and 3.97sGPA. Kathleen received a 20 AA 21 TS and graduated with a 3.89cGPA and 3.75sGPA. That being said, these are just two parts of the whole application. The application involves so much more such as Letters of Recommendations, your Personal Statement, Experiences, achievements, etc. so I wouldn’t fixate so much on the numerical stats. Hope this helps and feel free to ask any other questions! - Nico

[@Sfoli]

Thank you so much for sharing! And congratulations to you both 👏🏻👏🏻

[@thedentalduo]

@@Sfoli Of course, my pleasure. Good luck on your application process if you’re applying this cycle and thank you!

[@Sosmoove]

Happy for you guys

[@thedentalduo]

We appreciate it bro

[@nataliaorso1649]

So proud of my OG Chem friend :)

[@thedentalduo]

Thank you Nat! You're next with med school :)

[@mu7336]

was the score you got immediately after taking the DAT similar to your actual scores?

[@thedentalduo]

Hey! I’d say 99.99% of people who take the DAT end up getting the same official score as their unofficial. It’s extremely rare for your score to change from your unofficial.

[@mu7336]

are you both US citizens or international applicants?

[@thedentalduo]

We are both US citizens.

[@samuelkim2611]

I got in Harvard and Penn, but I cannot afford. Instead I went to UCLA in 1985. At that time tuition is free at UCLA dental school.

[@thedentalduo]

Wow, what a blessing! Congrats to you! I would have made the same decision in your position with such an amazing opportunity to go to dental school for free.

[@samuelkim2611]

@ Unfortunately those days will never come back. You guys made a right decision.

[@nataliaorso1649]

I love it!
