“It’s a great resource and lessening my anxiety as I apply for medical schools and check on other people’s progress, getting pointers on my own progress. Thank you!” – SDN 2022 Survey Respondent<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

 <\/p>\n

“SDN was an invaluable tool for me in helping me get accepted to the program of my choice and it is still helpful to me even after my acceptance!” – SDN 2020 Survey Respondent<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cI go back to the pre-dental forums to help students that want to be accepted into dental school. Students on SDN were there for me and I want to now help make sure the next dental school applicant also feels like they are not fighting a losing war.\u201d – SDN 2020 Survey Respondent<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

 <\/p>\n<\/div>

“There’s like 10+ years worth of free admissions guides and advice on here that you’d be charged thousands of dollars for elsewhere.” – SDN User DoctoOcto<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

 <\/p>\n

“Thank you so much for helping moderate forums to make them safe and helpful spaces. I’ve seen that in action and truly appreciate it!” – SDN 2022 Survey Respondent<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cI think SDN is a great tool for those that are interested in applying to any healthcare field. It is a guide and allows you to feel at ease knowing you have advice for anything you can possibly ask on the website.\u201d – SDN 2020 Survey Respondent<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cIt is nice to have other people to go through this process with. The journey is a tough one, no one should have to go at it alone and this website helps to solve that.\u201d – SDN 2020 Survey Respondent<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
