 Before we begin with the whole process of
getting into dental
school, let me give you some advice:
Nothing in the world can take
the place of persistence.
Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent.
Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.
Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts.
PERSISTENCE and DETERMINATION
alone are omnipotent.
The pre-admissions process may seem somewhat
complicated to prospective applicants, however, with proper advice and
guidance, it can be greatly simplified. The
following pages represent a dental student's perspective of the
application process and suggestions to help you gain admission to the
dental school of your choice (preferably UB School of Dental
Medicine!).
