No way to prove that I was (and hopefully soon will be again) a medical student, but to be fair most Dent and Med students are put into the same BOM (basics of medicine) classes for the first year and a half of their degrees. Meaning most DDS and MD students have very similar pre-clerkship educations.
If X were to argue that he knew ALL the same pathologies and histology of an MD student, I would disagree. But he isn’t saying that. He is merely saying that he has the same education as an MD student in terms of anatomy, physiology, biochem etc. which in most universities I know of it fairly accurate.
Let’s not gang up on me now because I’m supporting X for this one thing. For some reason this forum has turned into a bi-partisan system…But in this case it’s not so much opinion as it is fact.

Thank you. They are literally arguing against fact…which makes no sense.

Nobody’s going to gang up on you. Like you said, what you stated is fact. There’s nothing wrong with the delivery of your post either.

Well then, now that we all understand that I do have a level of education on many of the subjects we discuss that matches or surpasses many here who seem to think they have “better objective means”…can we move on?
Being treated like my credentials put me beneath guys like Brick with an undergrad is ridiculous.

Nope, it’s too late.

You have less education and training in nutrition than Brick.

False.
A nameless faceless poster with 2 dozen posts just said otherwise.
Who knows if they’re an MD or not.[/quote]
Dear Lord…so you issue isn’t what is true at all…that my education WAS THE SAME AS YTHE MED STUDENTS through more than two years which covers anatomy, phys, gross, pharm and anything else the med school students learned.
That isn’t made up. It is why I can go directly into a medical residency program after dental school without going to med school.
Do you get it now?[/quote]
Do you get that the 3-6 years of residency for a M.D. after medical school also adds to their education and expertise? [/quote]
No way bro!
No way.
They go to the same school for MORE THAN TWO YEARS!!!
Samesies bro, samesies.[/quote]
Right. Just like the medical and dental board exams are exactly the same and so is the clinical work. I have a friend getting in his clinic hours now for dental school. I wonder how many med students are in there with him working on people’s teeth trying to meet the same hour requirements.

That’s great…but I knew many guys who did that who still didn’t graduate.
The amount of info would make that near impossible to do.
Dental and med school test you ability to learn massive amounts of info in very short periods of time.
Like I said, I don’t see most of the anatomical names we learned on any average skull chart found on the internet. We had less than two weeks to cram all of these names into our heads and then dump the info to add even more huge lumps of info.
Undergrad is nothing like that.
If I wanted something done with my teeth I would go to someone like PX if I wanted to progress in BB I would go to Stu, Brick or Zraw.
Can we move on now?

? No one wrote that.
What was written is that I can go directly into a medical residency program out of dental school just like a med school student.
Uh, none?

That’s impressive, but it’s more impressive if your natty. I mean, respect for those who get through it memory assisted, but it takes something away from the accomplishment IMO.

Fair enough. I don’t know why keep bringing up undergrad though lol. I already cleared the air with that.
