In the hospital, they dictate the rules.”“I’m so glad I went the dental route rather than the medical route.

It’s a totally different exam than anything you’ve taken before.”“I worked myself to the limit preparing for that exam. Thank God I’m out of it now.”“I wish I would’ve lived life a little bit more in undergrad and dental school instead of constantly stressing about the next exam.”“So little of school actually relates to real life.
