Great, thanks! I feel much better now.

Just a quick endo question, Does EPT work on porcelain crowns? What about composite restorations? I keep hearing different answers for this one so wanted to see what you all thought. Thanks!

I bought surgitel 2.5x loupes, that are the flip-up type from a classmate for 1/2 price ($350) and I hate them. Most of my classmates use Orascoptic through-the-lens and I regret not buying those. (I think they paid $700 new). They're lighter, more comfortable and just made better. The...

Isn't there also: HIPAA = Health Insurance Portability and Accountability act ??

Hey Al, woah, you got all your teeth from one oral surgeon? That's crazy. I don't think we need the teeth until next semester so i think i'll start collecting once I move don to LA. Hopefully it won't be too late. Anne, I think the laptop is included in the equipment fee and we'll get...

Al, i'll actually be living a few blocks away from you at 1400 Midvale. It seems like a nice neighborhood so i'm looking forward to it. BTW, have any of you guys started collecting teeth yet?? I better get going on that...

Hey ricegirl, You're lucky! I found a place south of wilshire so my walk will be more like 20 minutes compared to your 5 minutes. You're moving on the 14th? Are you just going to hang out until orientation on the 11th? My apt actually doesn't open up until sept. 6th so I won't be moving...

What's up everyone! Just wanted to see who else is going to ucla this fall. I just got back from LA and i'm definitely excited about moving down there in September :cool: Has everyone found a place already? It took forever but I finally found a studio in westwood that's tiny and...

Hey everyone, Is it worth the $65/year to join ASDA? I guess you just get to attend conventions for free and receive publications. any ideas? Thanks in advance!

haha...okay i'm convinced...no studying this summer. ( i didn't feel like it anyway :)

Yes, send in your application before you take the DAT. AADSAS will take months to process and send your application in which time you can study and take the dat...your scores will go to the schools within a week or two.

Hey Big Poppa, Thanks for the good advice. I definitely plan on having a balanced life during school but I've been out of college for a few years now so its been a while since i've cracked open a science text. Thought it'd be a good idea to get that part of my brain working again :) Any...

Hello all, I'm going to have quite a bit of time to read this summer while I travel, so I figure might as well get a preview of what i'll be up against come September. Any suggestions on one or two textbooks that I should start looking over? anatomy? biochem? Thanks in advance for any help!

Hey everyone, Has anyone had any luck finding housing near the school? I haven't even had a chance to go down to LA to look for a place and I might not even have time until august!...probably not a good idea. Also, is there another deposit after the initial $200 deposit? Hope everyone is...

thanks HG :) Now I have to rush home and check my mailbox!... Hey Stargirl, did you get your letter yet? I'm guessing that being higher on the waitlist is better. Anyone else?
