Takes a tremendous amt of courage & selflessness to be this vulnerable online, in an effort to provide real value & transparency to viewers. Congratulations on persevering and powering through Jack. Excited for your pediatric dental journey, Let’s get it!! 🚀🚀🚀

[@jackhansmiles]

Thank you king of pediatric dentistry 🫡 Glad I am joining you on the east coast. Always have looked up to you! :)

[@MrsEJV]

TUFTS!!! Congratulations……great school, great location, I’m from Massachusetts - born in Cambridge. I recognized Tufts way more than the other schools. I’m friendly with a family where Dad went to Tufts dental as did his two sons. Fun fact, it has one of the best veterinary schools. I can’t imagine wanting pediatric dentistry, but wishing you a great experience. 👏👏👏

[@EliVahab]

It was probably the most genuine video I ever watched on KZbin. We probably all know the feeling but too scared to share such feelings with others, especially online. Thanks for being so brave and sharing it. I probably cried with it more than a tragic movie.😅

[@jackhansmiles]

It happens to so many every year but really isn't talked about. Happy I could shine a light and thank you so much for the comment 🥹

[@CarolFague]

Yessss!!! Welcome to my corner of the world. Tufts is lucky to have you! So many underserved kiddos you will affect. Congratulations!

[@monicacoffey1895]

Perseverance and grit - two amazing qualities! Congratulations! ❤

[@melkohn6214]

Jack...a stranger here who saw your video on match day and wanted to congratulate you. Born in Boston, high schol at Boston Latin, lived in Newton, love the Bruins and Sox. And...Tufts is great!!!! Kids will realize that they have found the best doc around!!!!!!

[@MrsEJV]

Your post struck me. Born in Winchester, MA. Was in the first BC class admitting girls. Why BC? I was a competitive figure skater. Patriots played their first few years there before they had a home field. It was one of the few rinks that were bearable before getting a little heat. Watson Arena at Harvard was the coldest place ever….but I guess skating was like matching for dentists. Priorities.

[@melkohn6214]

Thanks for the message. No doubt that you are going to be the best, not just in your field of expertise but in the mind of the kids that you see and their feeling that they are with a doc who is the best of the best. You know...kids know these things. I used to live just behind BC law school while I was taking a class trying to learn Russian for an extended trip that I was planning. This would be for a grad school program in International Relations. Most of the Harvard students were always way ahead of me in class. A bit of trivia...my sister convinced me to buy a small house and rent it to make money for the travel and living expenses abroad. The house was in Sharon, Mass. just 6 miles from the Pats stadium. I actually rented it to Pats ballplayers while they were on the team. What an experience!!! Players and their families were very nice as were the Pats. Tufts and Boston will be great. Again, congrats!!!!!!

[@jackhansmiles]

Wow, thank you! :)

[@Cali_Husky]

Congratulations!! I followed you since I was a pre-dent (international student sadly) and your videos were my motivation. I’m so happy for your match and please keep posting about your residency (and perhaps tips you’d give for international dental student who’d like to specialize??😊

We are both international students!! Thank you so much. Before applying make sure to call or email all of the schools that you want to apply to. Get word directly from the program if they accept international students!

[@ErikaCorrea]

Congratulations Jack!!! The match process is such a roller coaster! 😅 So glad to hear it worked out in the end because I was rooting for ya. 🎉

[@jackhansmiles]

It really is!!! Wishing you the best of luck if you are applying again?

[@Xoxo033]

I’ve seen that look before … deep down you were hurting and it seemed like you were p*ssed off - almost like you could not wrap your mind why they didn’t want you. I’d know I’d be so angry inside .. but here’s to a better future. This happened for a reason and you’ll take that experience and be way better doctor because of this. Those schools lost a good one

[@jackhansmiles]

Appreciate this message heavy you totally nailed it. But yes moving on to bigger and better things! :)

[@superstars1243]

Congrats Jack!! I have been watching your videos for years now. I start Tufts dental school this Summer. Thanks for sharing your experiences.

[@dentalbros]

Congratulations! Super excited for your future videos in Boston!

[@jackhansmiles]

Absolutely, can't wait to explore the city!! :)

[@yanirisrodriguez2425]

Can you explain what is residency for dental students? How long is it and what do you do

[@jackhansmiles]

Hi so some dental students or dentists will try to specialize in different fields that range from 2-6 years of extra training!

[@summerflaherty5542]

Congrats you deserve it!!!

[@brandonncee]

[@waynesimpson4081]

Did you just "fail upwards"? Tufts is definitely a good result, though USC is very good and rapidly improving.

[@jackhansmiles]

hhahaha in a way I did!! That is an interesting way to think about it
