I am a PASS student at Penn. I can recommend a good hotel to you. I think it costs less than $100 for a double room. Check up "The Windsor Hotel"
 
hi BDS-DMD,
do they have prac. exam 4 the PASS interview??

No they don't. They either send an intv letter or a rejection letter. I called them up (last year) to find out if my application was complete. Good luck.
 
Balldan:No practical test. Just 3 personal interviews conducted by various faculty.

dentisjas: Don't make such statements. Your residency status has nothing to do with your call.

This is a classic example of misinformation on SDN about UPenn.

Some time around Nov-Dec some one will write in saying all seats at UPenn are full. Utter crap. Why would they call people till end of Feb if the seats are full by Dec? Also about the number of seats? No one knows. The school will not tell any one. But some one will write in saying this year they have reduced the seats to half. Unless some one can say who at Penn told them that,please don't say something like this.

I think I will start a separate thread for this

Divine Tracy Hotel is economical ($45/ day including taxes) and it is just 0.6 miles from the place of interview.
 
Hi

When you got the interview call letter from Penn ...they must have also sent the hotel information along with that.!!!.why don't you look into that? and call up a few places and maybe you can get a good rate.
Good Luck !!!....:luck:

Hello,
I have just becum a memeber here. Plnning to take my exam 2nd time this year. Last year A couple of my frieds told me that residency status is important. Infact univ of Illinois staff said that to me personally..... After reading views here I am confused????
Thanks
 
You have to understand that Univ of Ill has residency as one of their REQUIREMENT. So thats totally different.

Welcome to SDN... I see that you are new here :) ... If you look through all the threads you will get a lot of information... but it all comes down to Kaplan, Dental decks and ASDA papers. You can get them from the websites. Good luck!!
