Dental School Admissions Coaches

I went through the dental school application process just 2 years ago and was admitted to 10+ dental schools across the U.S., so I understand firsthand how exciting (and challenging) this journey can be! Whether you’re looking for mock interview practice, guidance on school selection, or a full application review, I’m here to support you every step of the way. I have extensive experience with essay writing and love helping pre-dental students craft unique, compelling personal statements and secondary essays through brainstorming and editing sessions. My goal is to make this process a little less overwhelming and help you get one step closer to your dream of becoming a dentist!

My name is Bryan Chai, and I am living proof that persistence, preparation, and the right strategy can lead to success in the competitive world of dental school admissions. I have been through the ups and downs of the application process—not once, but twice. After facing rejection in my first cycle, I completely transformed my approach and was successfully admitted to three dental schools in the 2024-2025 cycle while balancing the rigorous demands of a Master of Biomedical Science program at Roseman University. I know what it takes to stand out and succeed. Every pre-dental student’s journey is different. If you are struggling with the DAT, unsure how to present extracurriculars, or nervous about interviews, I will work with you one-on-one to create a plan that maximizes your chances of success!

I have a lot of personal experience with dental school admissions and am very qualified to help pre-dental applicants with every step of the process. I received a top score on the DAT in 2024, and can provide students with advice and study strategies for the exam. For interviews, I can offer live practice sessions, a list of questions to prepare, and assistance with formulating responses. Additionally, I will provide templates for letters of intent/interest on request as well as editing services for letters, personal statements, and supplemental application responses. I am also happy to answer any questions about my experience and provide counseling on dental shadowing hours, volunteering, and other application requirements.

I think one way to develop into a great coach is having completed the pathway before. Having gone through the process of undergraduate preparation for taking the DAT, applying to dental school, interviewing, getting accepted, and then doing well in school to get into an oral and maxillofacial surgery residency program. I hope to share this with others!

With a strong foundation in both clinical and research settings, I am passionate about guiding aspiring dental professionals through the admissions process.

I know what schools are looking for from working with various admissions officers from different schools and from my own experience in the application process.
