During my Junior year, I took Dental Assisting at the GTI. It was quite a nice experience, with friendly other students and teachers. On my first day at the GTI, literally every person I encountered were so kind in showing me directions. The food at the cafeteria is also very delicious, and I also managed to do an externship there!
