A dentist I talked to said that in the military the guys that get into specialty programs (OS,endo,ortho) are the ones who have served some time first and have not run away from deployment orders. He also said that when he went in for OS, the previous two things were often more important than board scores..Also, possibly a desire to stay in longer was a good factor in deciding who gets the slots..
I saw the stats and the acceptance stats for OS in the Navy a couple of years back was around 50%.. 16 applied/8 accepted?
Any opinions? Does this sound right? Is it easier to get into than civilian programs? Is the training good?
What about the Army, is it easier to match because they have more slots?
Thanks,
Bucky
