| FAQ's |
| How come my record doesn't show up? |
| The presence or absence of the date is what determines if you appear on a particular list(Interviewed, Accepted, etc.). The only exception is the "Attending" list in wich you need to check the "attending" checkbox. If you slelect more than one school to be "attending", the last one you select will be the one that shows up. |
|
| What cycle is this data for? |
This should be painfully clear!
You can switch cycles anytime you want by selecting a new cycle from the drop down menu at the top of the screen.
BTW, the cycle year is for the ENTERING class, not graduating. This also should be painfully clear. :) |
|
| What if I find an error or a bug? |
| Please report it to PDizzle |
|
| WTF? You have ads on your site now! |
| I know I said I wouldn't do that from the very begining, several years ago but the traffic of the site made me go to a dedicated server and those aint cheap! Plus I'm a student also so of course I'm dead broke! |
|
| Can I add multiple DAT scores for each of my attempts? |
| I orginally programmed the capability for this but after a while had to throw it out. The latest one is by far the most important so to make things easier and less confusing, I made it only one DAT entry. |
|
| Where are the Canadian schools? |
| I have plans to add them if enough people want them. Make some noise you Canadians!!!! |
|
| What if I don't remember the exact date something happened for a school. What do I do? |
Guess!....
Seriously, do not leave it blank becasue it is the date (presence or absence) that displays you on the appropiate list. With no dates, you will not show up.
Why did I do it this way? Because applying to D-School is all about "when". When your app was complete, when you interviewed, when you got accepted, etc. It's a way to force people to put in dates. |
|
| How do I contact another record holder of PreDents.com? |
Right now, you can't. I do not want PreDents.com to be a forum. I don't want shit talking between people. I want people to be free to create an account and not get hassled or bugged with mesages.
However, I do know that this will be a popular request so in the future I will create a message system BUT every user will have the ability to reject these messages. In fact, it most likely will be set to reject by default and have to manually be turned on. You will see if a user is accepting messages.
Forums and crap talking is what SDN is for!! hehe |
|
| I have a better logo for a school then the one you have. What do I do? |
| Send me an email and attach the image and I will look into replacing it. Be sure it is official and cool looking. Remember, it doesn't have to be the actual dental school logo. Sometimes the basic school logo is cooler, especially if they have a football team and you use the helmet!! |
|
| Where did you get the school stats from? |
The ADEA Official Guide to Dental Schools, 44th Edition. The stats on my website are not meant to replace the book. Trust me, you need to buy this book to make the critical decision of where to apply.

|
| What is my PreDents.com User ID Number? |
| On SDN you can put a link to PreDents.com with your stats. The link goes right under your photo but you need to type in your PreDents.com User ID. To find this, simply go to your info page by clicking your User Name(after logging in of course) and it is right next to your name. |
|
| Why can't I vote on the instant poll? |
Well, first off you need to have an activated record and logged in to vote.
In addidtion, you can only vote once per poll. Once you have voted on a poll, you can always view the results at any time (There is a link below the answers) |
