Pre-Dental Talk Presented by CrackDAT.com

In Episode 11 of Pre-Dental Talk, Bart and Lauren, who are currently D1s, talk about their reasons for pursuing careers in dentistry. They talk about their journeys to dental school and what ultimately made them decide on dentistry. They also share advice for anyone deciding between dentistry and other careers in healthcare, as well as other factors to consider when deciding whether to enter the dental field.

In this episode of Pre-Dental Talk, we chat with a first-year dental student at the Harvard School of Dental Medicine, Bart Voto (@studentdentist_bart on Instagram). We talk about how he was able to earn a full-ride scholarship to dental school through the National Health Service Corps. We will cover everything you need to know about the scholarship (how to apply, application requirements, what the scholarship covers, etc.). If you have any additional questions about the scholarship, you can reach out to Bart via Instagram!
