Decent, but not what I was hoping for. December 16, 2008 L. S. Marrone I was hoping for something with a little more insight into dentistry, with more practical advice on how to get into a dental school, with more ideas of how to prepare now as a pre-dental student. It was useful in some aspects of different fields of dentistry and gave me a better idea of the DAT, which I dont know much about because it's still a good year off. This book is useful if have no idea about going into dentistry or on the fence and want to know more.
Great for those interested in the field November 16, 2008 DentalWorks Any time that a person enters a new stage of life, there will be challenges - and wanting to enter the field of dentistry is no different. There are challenges to overcome and it's important to be prepared so that you can successfully tackle them.
Dr. Joseph Kim's book, The Pre-Dental Guide: A Guide for Successfully Getting into Dental School, will help readers do just that, providing potential applicants with plenty of information from the ground up to help them get into dental school. Not just any dental school, either, because Kim also focuses on helping people get into the dental school that they want.
The author of this book is a dentist himself who has gone through the process that he describes; plus, he has worked as an instructor for the Dental Admission Test (DAT), as well. Perhaps the most useful part of the book, not surprisingly, is the insight that he offers to students who want to take and pass the DAT. If you're thinking about dental school but worry about test taking, the tips that he offers and the mistakes that he warns against should be especially helpful to you.
We recommend this book to people who are wishing to enter the field of dentistry - and, even if you're not sure about your career choice, The Pre-Dental Guide: A Guide for Successfully Getting into Dental School will give you the information you need to make an educated decision about your future.
don't waste your money November 5, 2008 predent This book is just a waste. It is old and outdated. Just go to SDN for any info you need to apply to dental school.
good to get the idea February 9, 2008 Wai Ling Chan (star) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
It was helpful in terms of it has pretty much everything that you should know before you apply to dental school. Just use this book as a guide to plan and get some idea when you have no clue. It won't give more than that. It gives some strategies for DAT but it's not enough for sure to improve your DAT score. As I said earlier...just use this book as a guide.
great little book, perfect for future dentists May 15, 2007 Mr. Cole W. Stapp 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
