NSU Experience
The NSU undergraduate Biology program definitely prepared me well for the challenges of Dental School. At NSU, I learned valuable time management skills in order to succeed in the more difficult academic years ahead. My favorite thing about NSU was the small classroom size (compared to larger public/private colleges) that allowed a more personal interaction with my professors and more accessibility to them which I believe was another important factor in my success. The most important advice I can give to current students is to get out there and shadow members of whichever career you are considering before pursuing it academically. A lot can change in a career while you are in school working towards it. Another invaluable piece of advice is to MASTER TIME MANAGEMENT NOW! (-aka- don't wait until you actually need it)
