The team at International Dentist Central was really proficient. They have helped me with my Cv, Sop and other documents in such a short time. In addition, they have been very accomodating about the interview dates and always try to do the mock interviews in the necessary timeline to ensure that I am prepared to succeed. I am very happy with the whole team and will strongly recommend it to others who are looking to editing their documents and interview help.<\/div><\/div>

It is with my sincere pleasure to write and recommend IDC for the international dentist application process. When I moved to US, I was subscribed to Dr. Alyssa\u2019s lectures and joined every workshop that was hosted. This helped to map out the journey and made the process more clear. When time came closer to apply, I knew that I wanted to do everything I could to get admission in the first cycle. I joined bench mastery course with Dr. Alyssa and received the access to instructional videos and was able to get immediate feedback on my preparations and how to improve. I also joined interview mastery course with Kevin and another interview professional, we went through couple mock interviews and all the tips and tricks on how to master the responses. Moreover, all my documents including SOP and letters of recommendations were edited by amazing member of the group, who helped to write \"my story\" perfectly. We met online for initial session and I was able to relay my experiences to the editor and she guided me on what to concentrate and include in the SOP. Thereafter,\u00a0 we went through numerous editing versions of the documents until everything was finished. The most beneficial part for me personally was the constant support and encouragement that I received and efficiency of the process. I had confidence that my application was covered from all angles. After applying, I received 9 interview invitations, attended 3 interviews and was accepted in all 3 that I attended. It is through thorough preparation, dedication and support that it was possible to achieve the dream. Reflecting back, I am happy with the investment that I made and would recommend IDC for every applicant in order to maximize the chance of getting an acceptance within first try. Best of luck to everyone.<\/div><\/div>

I used International Dentist Central during my year off when I knew my handskills would probably begin to lag. I didn't have a ton of experience to begin with so I enjoyed using this program because it was in the comfort of my own home. Also the tutorials go over basic questions that sometimes we as dentists may feel too embarrased to ask at such a late stage. At times the critques can be hard to hear, but I will say over time when I would practice I knew how to correct myself because Dr. Alyssa had already corrected me in a previous feedback. I would highly recommend this program especially if your confidence is low and you want to build on your skills. Dr Alyssa will teach you what these programs expect to see so you won't be taken off guard.\r\nI also used IDC to learn how to interview for US programs. Personally, I would recommmend the tutorial where Dr. Kevin goes over how to give a concise explanation of what you have to offer in just a few sentences. I used his method verbatim at just about every interview and it always moved my interview forward in a positive direction.\r\nOverall, I highly recommend IDC \ud83d\ude42<\/div><\/div>

I am so thankful to Dr. Alyssa and her team for helping me out. To be very honest, I prepared for my bench test with her for less than three weeks (not an example to be followed, starting early is always the best thing to do!) and I made it into UCLA, the first school to invite me for the test. Dr. Alyssa was very straightforward in letting me know where I stood and what I needed to do. The most unique and informative part of the course was that I was able to see her critique not only for my preps but also for other candidate's preps. I did not have to wait for her feedback to proceed further because I constantly had so much material in hand from her previous critiques for other candidates. In such a small amount of time, I really feel that this aspect of the course helped me out tremendously! The course follows a step-by-step pattern where there's a theoretical part to it and then the actual prep being demonstrated. So, the course provided me clear direction which I believe all students look for once they start preparing for their bench-test. I was anxious about everything, but Dr. Alyssa's guidance helped me build confidence in whatever I was doing and made a stressful situation a much easier one to get through! I really appreciate Dr. Alyssa and her team for guiding candidates like me at the comfort of their homes!<\/div><\/div>

I first came upon the International Dentist Central (IDC) last year and knew immediately that this was what i wanted. This is because i have a full time job and there are limits in the amount of time I could spare to attend in-person programs. it was also much more affordable too. I got in on the complete package via the Colorado special they ran at the time and Folks, let me tell you: It IS the complete package.\r\n\r\nThere's a treasure trove of information. pretty much EVERYTHING you need is available. The interview mastery by Kevin really played a major role in helping me answer those questions such as tell me about yourself, a question that is so vague and can be easily messed up but one is certain to encounter.Kevin even went as fat as posting an answer to my specific situation which i didn't know how to effectively answer. Dr Alyssa is so helpful with her teaching, taking everything step by step and i mean everything was covered. The feedback sessions with her are very crucial and helpful. Matter of fact, I implemented one of her recommendations regarding my preps which I carried over into the exam and i'm happy to say it paid off. I got accepted to my dream school, a school I really really wanted to go to.\r\nI can't recommend IDC enough. They're simply a must have in your corner.\r\n\r\nFrom the bottom of my heart, I say thank you to Dr Alyssa, Kevin and to all the folks at IDC. Thank you so much guys. You are simply wonderful people.<\/div><\/div>

A very Big THANK YOU to Kevin! You have played such a pivotal role in my admission process. The interview preparations and feedback sessions were really helpful. I also valued Dr. Alyssa's inputs on the dental related questions in the panel interview. I liked the fact that many a times Kevin will go over the time limit set as you wanted to answer all of my queries and help me out as best as you can. I cannot thank you enough.\r\n\r\nI wish to thank Kristen for her untiring efforts on the documentation. Her choice of words and style in editing the statement has helped me a lot in the whole process. She was always open to suggestions and modified the statement many a times to accommodate my requests until I was finally satisfied. In addition to the statement, I feel the resume editing also helped to make the application coherent.\r\n\r\nI had a wonderful experience. I will recommend it wholeheartedly. I feel it helped me to tell my story the way I wanted to. Thank you guys so much in being a part of my journey. I wish you all the very best and hope you continue to help the students and share your knowledge.<\/div><\/div>

Well. Getting to a Dental school is never easy. It is both challenging and stressful for international students. Clearing both exams, gathering up all the required documents for CAAPID, God! It was never a cake walk. After getting an interview, I was really hyper-stressed, anxious and scared to hell. I researched many Bench-Test Preparatory courses across the United States but I had to pick one which is financially feasible and one that is online due to my location constraints. Among them, Alyssa Marshall course seemed reasonable with price and also convenient enough to practice at home. But it didn't take long for me to realize that I made the right decision by joining her course. After I joined the course things got very clear- which school wants what in the tooth preparation. Her videos are damn good. I cannot stress more on it. She gives feedback within 24 hours and even lets you review other students feedback. Trust me they were very useful for me. Dr. Alyssa, in her feedback sessions, points out very fine details that examiners at the university use to triage applicants. Every Dental school has its own norm of tooth preparation and the schools specifically check for those particular features during the bench test. Dr. Alyssa knows everything. She gave me interview practice sessions before the interview and took one on one session after the interview to discuss. I got an acceptance and I am glad I made a right decision joining Dr. Alyssa Marshal's courses at the right time. Good luck for all the DDS aspirants. I am sure everyone going to make it. It is just a matter of time. Be patient and keep working hard.<\/div><\/div>

\"When I came to U.S, I started to search on youtube about International Dentists application to dental schools that how am I going to fulfill the application requirements. I was like a frog in a well, knowing nothing about what steps to take to become a U.S Licensed Dentist.\r\n\r\nGlad I found a video of Dr. Alyssa Marshall telling how to get into U.S dental schools faster<\/strong>; I saw her website specially directed for the foreign dentists only. Thus I knew that Dr. Alyssa was the one to help us fulfill our goals<\/strong>. I was overwhelmed with joy that not only the bench test course was available, but also the tricks and tips for acing the interview provided by Kevin Marshall were so essential and helpful. The editing service provided by this team was excellent and I thank Kandace for her assisstance and coordination.\r\n\r\nI thank Dr. Alyssa first and foremost, Kevin, and all the editors of this IDC team. They have made our lives so easy. I cannot thank them enough! You people are the best.\"<\/strong>\r\n(R.C)<\/div><\/div>

I came across your course and I subscribed to the free email. A friend of mine also lend me your book. I made a note book and divided it into sections : SOP, application essays, letter of recommendation, volunteer work and interview questions. I really wanted to attend your course but because I live in Pennsylvania it was a little difficult for me so I attended a week course at a dental school closed to home which was way very expensive but didn't satisfy me. But just in the light of the guidance that I got through your emails, book and videos I wrote my SOP, volunteered at various places, obtained good LORs and got 7 interview calls. I was in the first batch every where. I attended interviews from UIC, Umich, Upenn and Temple and declined Upitt, Pacific and Tufts. Got acceptance from UIC, Upenn and Temple was wait listed at Umich initially but just got acceptance few days ago. I choose Upenn.\r\n\r\nI am sharing this story to pay my gratitude to you for helping me grabbing so many interview calls and to Kevin for helping me nail my interviews. Two of my interviewers told me that they would love to have me in their school. That's a dream come true!<\/strong>\r\n\r\nEven a diamond gotta be polished first! Thank you for polishing me.<\/strong><\/div><\/div>

This is to thank Dr. Alyssa Marshall for providing me with valuable critic and praise on my preps as I prepared for my bench test. You may not remember me as I hardly sent pictures of my preps, but needless to say that your comments were very helpful in improving my skills and self confidence. I have been accepted at university of Colorado School of dental medicine. A big thanks to the team.<\/strong><\/div><\/div>

I am writing this review as I am confident that people looking for bench test help, do not have to look elsewhere. Dr. Alyssa & Kevin are versatile teachers; to be specific, they are good at observing your style of learning and teaching, accordingly.<\/strong> Their course is a single stop for everything you need for interviews and bench tests. They make your goal their priority. For example, they were in touch with me until the day I called to say I made it; however, I never heard from them later. This shows how much their hearts are with people who are still trying to get in to the school. They are a resource at hand; just make use of your resource wisely.<\/div><\/div>

I decided to take IDC course right after I received my first interview invitation and was lucky that they had a spot for the in-person course right before my bench test. I took Online Bench Test Intensive Course, Live Course with Dr. Alyssa and one mock interview with Kevin. As a result, I got accepted to the first dental school I received an interview call from, and it turned out to be my dream school - LLUSD.\u00a0<\/strong>From my experience, I can suggest every international dentist wishing to study in a US dental school not to be overconfident, and not to try their skills on a bench exam itself. If you want to be successful in this admission competition, you have to be prepared really well both for skill assessment tests and interviews. Do not hesitate and use services that International Dentist Central offers. They are real professionals and know how to make you a more competitive applicant.\u00a0<\/strong>For me it was a pleasure to take the in-person course with Dr. Alyssa. During the course she gives enough attention to every student, works with everyone personally, taking into consideration everyone's skills level. She is very meticulous about preparations, pays attention to every detail, and explains very clearly how to correct mistakes in order to adjust preps to standards that schools are looking for.<\/strong> It is beneficial even if you have decent hand skills. Not to mention that during the whole course you feel like home, as friendly atmosphere prevails, and Dr. Marshall truly cares about all her students.\u00a0I also highly recommend taking the mock interview with Kevin.<\/strong> I didn't have an interview before and it helped me a lot. It was useful to hear an honest straightforward opinion about my answers, and to look at myself in the video that was recorded during the session.\u00a0Overall, it was a great experience that I appreciate. Thank you Marshalls!<\/div><\/div>

I got acceptance from USC ASPID Class of 2016. My interview and bench test was quite okay, however they kept me on alternate list. Recently, they had send their first alternate list results and I got acceptance. I would like to thank you for all your help and guidance. It would not have been possible to crack the interview and bench exam in this high neck competition without your guidance. Students like me really need you and I would like to thank you on behalf of all them. Your in-personal class was amazing and I had learned a lot from that.<\/strong> I am sure this will going to help me in long run. Thank you again for organizing such intensive course.<\/strong><\/div><\/div>

Dear Dr. Marshall and Kevin I really really really appreciate for everything. I\u2019ve got accepted to UCLA, my DREAM SCHOOL. Yeeeeeeeeeehh!!! I\u2019m sure I couldn\u2019t made this year without you. Dear folks: I highly recommend their services. If you wanna dream big\u2026 you might have to spend big.. at the end when have that acceptance letter in your hand, you will realize it\u2019s totally worth it!\u00a0<\/strong>I purchased almost all their services: editing, mock interview, bench exam intensive course, and in person 5 days course and tried to make all work show and online meetings. Meetings and mock interviews were very informative, inspiring and encouraging.<\/strong> Writing was huge problem for me as I\u2019m not native speaker. Dr.Marshall, Kevin and their team\u00a0really took time and greatly improved my PS and CV and my overall application.<\/strong> As a result, I've got 4 school interviews and finally got into one of the best school in the world.\u00a0Taking an in person course was one of the best decision I ever made in my life.<\/strong> Dr.Marshall guided us every steps and corrected my mistakes. At UCLA\u2019s bench exams, they invited 100 students and only 56 students passed the exam and got opportunity for the interview. All spending was totally worth it ?<\/div><\/div>

I was accepted to UCLA! I felt great about the bench exam. Your tips and guidance improved my skills so much! I honestly felt that my best prep and class II that I had done the entire time in Cali, was on the bench exam! I killed it!<\/strong> You would have been proud. Also, the following week from the UCLA exam, I had another bench exam for an AEGD Program in Miami.\u00a0I used the same principles you taught me to do a pfm prep on #19 and a class II (m-o & o-l) on a #3. I did great! I used things I learned like bur depth, chisel and gmt use, and margin finishing to do a great job on that exam, which was on a mounted dentoform! I actually got accepted to the program in Miami, also! I found myself in the position to have to choose between 2 great programs that both accepted me! (Crazy!). I chose the AEGD Program in Miami, for a few reasons. (Deleted for privacy) Thank you so much for everything!<\/strong> Also my interviews were great thanks to the tips I learned! I really learned so much from you! I have already told a few friends about you, who will contact you when their time is ready.<\/div><\/div>

Hi everyone, whoever prepares to bench exam or interview in any dental school. I think the best solution is the international dentist central courses. I\u2019ve tried before and it was amazing. there are 2 types of courses one is intensive in-person course and the other is the online bench test intensive. I applied for both because I've not been working as a dentist for more than 6 years.\u00a0The price is reasonable and Dr. Marshall is so friendly and she gave me all support to build again my skills and confidence.<\/strong> Only few students in the class so she gives attention to everyone. Also, she prepared me for the interview through the mock interview session and she showed me how I can improve my performance during the interview and that makes a big difference.<\/div><\/div>

My experience with Dr.Alyssa and Kevin was truly amazing. Working with her in the live course gave me a huge insight of where I was going wrong. In just 2 days, my work started improving and I worked my way upto getting that acceptance, which was not possible without her guidance. First, I would like to introduce myself. I came from my home country with good grades , thinking that nbde part 1 and part 2 will lead my way to DDS. I was dumbfounded with the the level of competition which I experienced in the first cycle.\u00a0So, I attended a bench course in California. Sadly it did not help me at all. I got rejected from the 3 places where I went for interview and bench. When 2015 's cycle started ,I was all set to work hard and get that acceptance at first chance. I looked forward to attending University of Colorado 's interview .Then again, I did not make it. I knew that I needed help. With the recommendation of a friend who is in dental school , I got connected to Alyssa. She was very polite , understood my situation. After knowing that I had attended another course a year ago, she asked me to join her online course. The feedback from online course was priceless,plus her online courses were direct and to the point. This lead me to decide to go for her live course.\u00a0<\/strong>There after ,I attended 2 bench exams and interview. Got accepted at both places and turned down other invites. About the live course, its worth your money!!.Alyssa does not leave the lab room during work hours , she was alway there attending each student with their specfic needs. I can tell you that she knows what each school is looking for and how to get our hands running. I cannot thank Kevin enough for bringing lunch from Austin's best take outs. They will provide you with all the materials needed for you to practise. They both are down to earth , friendly and took good care of us. Best part of this course is even after you are done with live course, she will be there to guide you through out the cycle. She promptly answered all my last minute questions before my interview. You are wasting money on bench exam fee, hotel stay and travel if you are not prepared for a university's bench exam! So, don't think too much, better spend your money and time wisely. I highly recommend to start bench preparation way before you get an interview call. IDC is a great place to start by joining the online course, followed by attending live course. Working hard with proper guidance is the recipe for success. I am glad that I came to this place. Best wishes!! M K Indiana University Loma Linda Upenn<\/strong><\/div><\/div>

Attending Dr. Marshall\u2019s Bench Test Course was one of the best decisions I made in my planning for Dental School. My investment finally paid me off and I do not hesitate a bit to refer to people looking for some hands on training. For me she was the only resource to familiarize me with the bench exam expectations, instrumentation used and getting trained.\r\n\r\nShe gave 100 % attention to all the candidates, working us out through the weaknesses and helping us overcome them, which has been immensely useful.<\/strong> IDC team gives personal consideration to each student and their services have been exceptional. Dr. Marshall is not just an amazing teacher, trainer and coach, but a wonderful person too.\r\n\r\nI am glad I met her. For all those who would want to speak to me about my experience with Bench test Intensive course, please do not hesitate to ask Dr Marshall for my contact number. I would be happy to help you with any questions you have. Thanks Dr. Marshall, God bless you<\/div><\/div>

I enrolled for the online course after getting my 4th interview call. I didn\u2019t make it into the 3 interviews I attended before, so when I got an interview from Howard I wanted to do really well, it was my last chance this year.\r\nThe online course was really good. Dr. Alyssa took into consideration that my exam was in just one week. She catered the course to my needs and made some videos just for me instead of just saying it was not available.<\/strong> The prep feedbacks came back so soon too which helped me. When I send it in I wanted it the next day so I can improve from the day before.\u00a0I\u2019d definitely suggest everybody to take a bench test prep course before they even go for an interview or a bench test. We are almost broke after applying everywhere and this online course is a cheaper option. It\u2019s great value for your money. You definitely have to have some kind of course before going for the bench test. I have 4 years of experience practicing and I thought I\u2019d be fine at first. It\u2019s harder for people who worked as a dentist for several years to go for a course, but a bench test is a different ball game altogether. I didn\u2019t get that until I failed 3 interviews. I remember how Dr. Alyssa said to take each interview as a golden opportunity. I didn\u2019t do that at first. When I got several interview calls I thought I\u2019d have multiple acceptances. The interview and bench test at Howard was the toughest and most comprehensive of all interviews I went to this year. I don\u2019t think I would\u2019ve made it in if I didn\u2019t enroll in the course.<\/div><\/div>

After having not performed very well with my bench exam at one of the interviews, actually two, I knew that I needed professional help with my hand skills. I was lucky though, as I was receiving multiple interview calls from some very good programs. Therefore, I had to pull up my socks and not screw the interviews and technical exams that were in my hand. It was around the third week of the month of September and I was looking for the right mentor to help me with my bench exam skills.\u00a0At that period, Dr Alyssa Marshall was conducting a couple of 5 days intensive bench exam courses under IDC in Santa Monica, LA and I had heard about the glowing reviews of the bench exam preparation courses she conduct. Also, I used to attend her webinars on different aspects of application process and she was a great help in making my personal statement better. So, I made my mind to attend the course. Dr Marshall worked on my hand skills from scratch, like proper way of holding instruments, usage of hand instruments in defining preparations, finger rest and many other aspects of instrumentation. I thoroughly enjoyed and learnt a big deal from her classes, and at the end of the session, I felt much more confident in sitting for bench exam.\u00a0<\/strong>In addition to the immense help that I got from Dr Marshall, I would not like to miss this opportunity to thank Kevin. He made me realize what I was lacking in my answers for the interview process. I felt the huge change in my hand and interview skills at the interviews that I attended after the bench exam preparatory courses with Dr Marshall and Kevin.<\/strong> As a result, I ended up with multiple acceptances and a happy self. Now when I look back, I genuinely think that I made a wise decision in attending the bench exam courses conducted by Dr Marshall, and I am always thankful to her and Kevin in helping me fulfill my dream of getting accepted to a program here in US dental school<\/div><\/div>

I came across this book kind of accidentally while I was so desperate to find answers for many questions regarding application process. I decided to purchase it and found out that this book was very informative and encouraging<\/strong>.\u00a0Also, I purchased services such as editing personal statement and CV service from writer's website. https:\/\/internationaldentistcentral.com\/ As a foreign speaker writing an essay was very difficult task, and she was huge help for me. Now my everything is ready to be sent.<\/div><\/div>

Saying that the book is just helpful would be an understatement. It can easily dispel all your doubts and apprehensions and let you form a road-map ahead of you for your dream admission in DDS.<\/strong> And the fact that it is written by a person who makes you feel like a companion who is along with you throughout your journey makes it all the more worthwhile. Its worth is much more the price than it is being offered for.<\/div><\/div>

Amazing, Must-have, Path-clearer, Helper, Motivator and Problem-Solver... So much can I say about this book..Everyone in our Pre-Dental School time need it.. This book is an indispensable part of someone who is an International Trained Dentist and wants to get to Dental School<\/strong>... Even the Author, Dr.Alyssa, is an amazing lady.. I contacted her, and asked for some guidance help and presto, She helps you and guides you with everything she can.. Its like having a Dentist on ur side for everything you are yet to see.. As for the book? Just stop reading reviews, stop having 2nd thoughts and just buy it... $10 is nothing when your whole career is at stake.<\/strong><\/div><\/div>

After a couple of years trying to find information on how to become a dentist in the U.S., I found this book. I must admit that at first I had my doubts, I thought it would be another frustrated attempt. However, I could feel from the first pages that this book was going to help me not only to understand the process of becoming a dentist in this country, but also to give me the courage to say \"I can do this\".\u00a0This book is written in a very organized manner and it is simple to read.<\/strong>\u00a0The book is comprehensive and covers topics such as what exams to take and where to study (thanks to these tips I have passed the NDB part 1)<\/strong>. This also has lists of all Advanced Standing Programs, Residences,and all the possibilities to become a dentist depending on the state in which you want to practice. I bought the kindle version and it is surprisingly easy to find information about the requirements of each program. This is the best and unique guide for all international dentist who want to work in the United States.<\/strong> Thanks you Dr. Alyssa ?<\/div><\/div>

Before reading this guide book, I had no idea how to register as a dentist in US. The information I searched on different websites just confused me a lot. Thanks to Dr. Alyssa for all the details she provided in this book. It's definitely a must-read if you wanna\u00a0practice in US.<\/strong><\/div><\/div>

A friend of mine recommended this book and I have to say that it is a \"Must Have\" for every international dentist looking to obtain their license in the US.\u00a0<\/strong>This book will take you step-by-step in the process of applying to any program (DDS, DMD or a Dental Residency). The best way for me to describe this book is like having a good friend explaining what to do, saving you a lot of time! It is very well documented with the information about all the programs out there. It also will explain exactly what to study for each test. I made it last year to interviews for a residency program<\/strong>. This book has helped me improve the way I am presenting myself this year!! I wish I had this book when I started my process, I am sure it would had saved me a lot of time, money and effort.<\/div><\/div>

Working with IDC was an enriching experience!\r\n\r\nI learned a lot in the 5 days I spent with Dr. Alyssa.\u00a0She encourages her students to keep striving for perfection and that motivation kept me going. When I saw her do a preparation in front of me, the ease and perfection with which she did it made me want to make preparations just like her<\/em>.<\/strong> Even after the course, she was always available to help. Her reminder emails would be a boost for the days I would feel lazy, low or under-confident.\r\n\r\nThe online videos were amazing<\/strong> and I kept referring to them every single time I did my preparation. The feedback really helped me improve on my weak points and I really appreciate Dr. Alyssa's feedback for the many preparations I submitted. She is an amazing mentor and I learnt a lot from her, which I know will help me in my career.\r\n\r\nI feel so much more confident about my hand skills<\/strong> than I did before joining with IDC.\r\n\r\n5 stars, from my end!<\/div><\/div>

I got invited to an interview in a Top 10 Dental School and I did not know what a Bench Exam was. I found Dr. Marshall on a web search and I took her 1 week course in Santa Monica CA, this course proved to me exactly what I needed. I graduated a long time ago from a foreign Dental School and this course was a great refresher of everything I learned then. This course taught me about different approaches that Dental Schools in the US teach and so it gave me the insight to do very well in the Bench Exam.<\/strong> Dr. Marshall is very professional, approchable and also super patient and she likes to take care of every detail, if you have a question she will answer the best way possible.<\/strong> Her staff is also very nice, the equipment she uses is in perfect shape and they also provided us with food for breakfast, lunch and snacks (healthy food in general). I am very thankful and I can highly recommend Dr. Marshall if you are looking to prepare for the Bench Exam.<\/div><\/div>

I strongly believe that taking the international dentist course with Dr Marshall has really helped me a lot in preparing for my bench test and my interview<\/strong> as well.\u00a0In the online courses was\u00a0really useful and did prepare me for the intensive (in person ) course. In\u00a0the intensive course Dr. Marshall watches while you are working and guides you step by step and gives you a feedback so that you can work on the points that you missed till you actually get it . The mock interview was also a great help, it helped me in organizing my thoughts and answers and it gave me a great confidence during the interview .<\/div><\/div>

When I first came to the US, I had a chance to know Alyssa and her International Dentist Central when she organized a totally free and awesome prep for international dentists. The first experience when working with Alyssa and Kevin was very helpful.\u00a0The first cycle that I applied offered me 4 interview invitations. But when I received the refusal of the first 3 schools (even though that I thought I did a great job), I knew that I had to investigate the causes of failure and got help from experienced people. I decided to go online on her website, got my personal statement and CV edited, my interview skills improved. Alyssa and Kevin gave me so good advice. Honestly, for all the money I spent to make it work, it's truly worth investing. And I made it to COLORADO dental school<\/strong>. I could say the bench test and interview was the most difficult and challenging I've ever had, but I was so well prepared. I highly recommend this service to anyone who really wants to make it happen in the first batch! Go for it and you'll never regret!<\/strong><\/div><\/div>

This prep course saved my life!<\/strong> I was out of practice and had gotten the call to come in for a bench test at UCLA. I went into total panic of course and that\u2019s when I found this course online. Besides all the online help, Dr. Alyssa gave such helpful hints and guidance, not to mention encouragement, during the in-person practice week. She was willing to look at every prep I did and tell me exactly what was right and wrong about my work. The mock interview I did with Kevin was unbelievably constructive as well. Overall, it was all very professional and went beyond all my expectations; they are wonderful people as well as phenomenal instructors and advisers. Ultimately, it all paid off because with their help I was accepted into the PPID program at UCLA, class of 2016!<\/strong><\/div><\/div>

I got acceptance from USC ASPID Class of 2016<\/strong>. My interview and bench test was quite okay, however they kept me on alternate list. Recently, they had send their first alternate list results and I got acceptance. I would like to thank you for all your help and guidance. It would not have been possible to crack the interview and bench exam in this high neck competition without your guidance. Students like me really need you and I would like to thank you on behalf of all them. Your in-personal class was amazing and I had learned a lot from that.<\/strong> I am sure this will going to help me in long run. Thank you again for organizing such intensive course.<\/div><\/div>

Marshall guides you through every step needed to achieve perfection in your bench exam. She goes down to the basics and concentrates on each student individually which I loved the most.\u00a0<\/strong>After the in person course my online experience with Dr Marshall and Kevin was amazing they guided me completely for my interview process as well. In short I would recommend this to everyone who wants to succeed in securing their spot on the school of their choice<\/strong>.

Whoever prepares for the Bench exam or an interview in any dental school, I think the best solution is the International Dentist Central courses. I've tried before and it was amazing. there are 2 types of courses one is Intensive in-person course and the other is the 'Online Bench Test Intensive'. I applied for both because I've not been working as a dentist for more than 6 years. The price is reasonable and Dr. Marshall is so friendly. She gave me all the support to re-build my skills and confidence.<\/strong> There are only a few students in the class so she gives attention to everyone. Also, she prepared me for the interview through the mock interview session and she showed me how I can improve my performance during the interview and that makes a big difference.<\/div><\/div>

I enrolled for the online course after getting my 4th interview call. I didn\u2019t make it into the 3 interviews I attended before, so when I got an interview from Howard I wanted to do really well, it was my last chance this year.\r\n\r\nThe online course was really good.<\/strong> Dr. Alyssa took into consideration that my exam was in just one week. She catered the course to my needs and made some videos just for me instead of just saying it was not available. The prep feedbacks came back so soon too which helped me. When I send it in I wanted it the next day so I can improve from the day before.\r\n\r\nI\u2019d definitely suggest everybody to take a bench test prep course before they even go for an interview or a bench test. We are almost broke after applying everywhere and this online course is a cheaper option. It\u2019s great value for your money.<\/strong> You definitely have to have some kind of course before going for the bench test. I have 4 years of experience practicing and I thought I\u2019d be fine at first. It\u2019s harder for people who worked as a dentist for several years to go for a course, but a bench test is a different ball game altogether. I didn\u2019t get that until I failed 3 interviews. I remember how Dr. Alyssa said to take each interview as a golden opportunity. I didn\u2019t do that at first. When I got several interview calls I thought I\u2019d have multiple acceptances.\r\n\r\nThe interview and bench test at Howard was the toughest and most comprehensive of all interviews I went to this year. I don\u2019t think I would\u2019ve made it in if I didn\u2019t enroll in the course.<\/div><\/div>

I am writing this review as I am confident that people looking for bench test help, do not have to look elsewhere. Dr. Alyssa & Kevin are versatile teachers; to be specific, they are good at observing your style of learning and teaching<\/strong>, accordingly. Their course is a single stop for everything you need for interviews and bench tests<\/strong>. They make your goal their priority. For example, they were in touch with me until the day I called to say I made it; however, I never heard from them later. This shows how much their hearts are with people who are still trying to get in to the school. They are a resource at hand; just make use of your resource wisely. I wish you all a very best future.<\/div><\/div>

Dear Dr. Marshall and Kevin I really really really appreciate for everything. I\u2019ve got accepted to UCLA, my DREAM SCHOOL.<\/strong> Yeeeeeeeeeehh!!! I\u2019m sure I couldn\u2019t made this year without you. Dear folks: I highly recommend their services.<\/strong> If you wanna dream big\u2026 you might have to spend big.. at the end when have that acceptance letter in your hand, you will realize it\u2019s totally worth it!<\/strong> I purchased almost all their services: editing, mock interview, bench exam intensive course, and in person 5 days course and tried to make all work show and online meetings. Meetings and mock interviews were very informative, inspiring and encouraging. Writing was huge problem for me as I\u2019m not native speaker. Dr.Marshall, Kevin and their consultant\u00a0really took time and greatly improved my PS and CV and my overall application. As a result, I\u2019ve got 4 school interviews and finally got into one of the best school in the world. Taking an in person course was one of the best decision I ever made in my life. Dr.Marshall guided us every steps and corrected my mistakes. At UCLA\u2019s bench exams, they invited 100 students and only 56 students passed the exam and got opportunity for the interview. All spending was totally worth it<\/strong>?<\/div><\/div>

Hope you are doing well. I got accepted at TUFTS and Oklahoma ? and I couldn't have done it without you and Kevin!!!\n\nIt feels so surreal and hasn't sunk in yet, but yes I'm totally ecstatic!! Looking back, I know that joining your course was probably one of the best decisions I made<\/strong> through this journey. While you helped me perfect my hand skills, Kevin helped polish my interview skills.\u00a0I was a bit taken aback when you told me that I needed to work on my confidence. But only a teacher who genuinely cares could recognise that.<\/strong> You both helped me work really hard on that and I think I really shocked myself with the level of confidence I felt going into each interview and while taking each bench test.\n\nI believed in myself because you believed in me ?\n\nI was interviewed at Loma Linda, Buffalo, Chicago, Tufts, Oklahoma, Pacific and UPenn.\u00a0Thank you both for everything again!!<\/div><\/div>
