JAMP’s Student Success Seminar Series: Empowering the Whole Scholar
JAMP's five-part seminar series, in partnership with OnlineMedEd, provided scholars with strategies to support both academic success and personal growth.
17 - Meet Dr. Barbara Miller from the Texas A&M College of Dentistry
Dr. Barbara Miller tells us about how the Texas A&M College of Dentistry offers a robust experience for future dentists in Dallas, TX. We also discuss upcoming changes to the curriculum at the Texas A&M College of Dentistry.
We learn about how applicants can stand out (both in a good and a bad way), and we tackle two myths: one about "gap years" and one about which major works best for dental students.
Dr. Miller refers to the wealth of information you can find at the Texas A&M College of Dentistry website: https://dentistry.tamhsc.edu/admissions/questions.html.
