Should I leave dentistry after 2 years?
I’m currently in my second year of dentistry and going into my third year in the next few months. I’ve been on clinic a few times assisting and I’m not sure that this is the career that I want to do. I don’t think that being a dentist will be fulfilling or rewarding, or even worth the salary for the stress. I’ve heard it can be a really stressful career especially DFT year. I ideally want to do something in writing / teaching and I also want to be able to work remotely. Should I power on through the five years or leave now to pursue something else?
Don't leave - you don't actually know until you're a dentist
And if you want to leave the dental degree will open doors
Consider doing an Intercalation if you want more options
Management at imperial is a good shout
