text: dental/medical school admissions? is dental school much easier to get into than medical school?  overall, are the applicants less qualified? depends where you are, where i am you need a very high entrance score to get into dentistry; the entrance score is lower for medicine but you also have to pass a series of other psychometric tests as well as an interview.  i found the tests and interviews quite easy whereas some friends of mine who received higher entrance scores than me failed the psychometrics.
