Hey everyone!
I really want to attend dental school in Texas. I am from Louisiana, but my dad grew up in Texas and completed his medical school and residency training in Houston. He moved to Louisiana to practice medicine, and I do not want to follow in his path lol. I have spent alot of time in TX if this means anything - grandparents, aunt, uncles and cousins still live there. I attended ExploreUTSD this spring and fell in love with the school and its sense of community. I have since followed up current students and Dr. Spears to share my interest in the school. How could I prove my desire to practice in Texas after graduation and familial ties to the state in my application?
GPA: 3.5
sGPA: 3.5
250+ shadowing hours (including 40 with a UTSD grad)
400+ volunteer hours
EC: D1 athlete, sorority executive board, pre-dental society president, etc.
DAT: N/A
