- I just took the DAT a week or so ago. I got like a 16 about 8 years ago. This time I got 20AA, 18TS. (23 reading, 23 gchem, 21 pat, 19 math, 19 ochem, 15 bio........ -_-
- I think I have a pretty strong personal statement and why I have focused myself and committed to dentistry after all these years of working.
- I've applied to the top 5 or so schools on the popular list on this board:
- I based my apps on number of OOS seats.
- I just sent in my application recently.
- I had horrible GPA more than 7-8 years ago when I graduated from college. I think maybe science GPA of around 2.5 and overall about 2.85
- Starting last summer I've been retaking classes - I think I have about a 3.4GPA since then.
- I'm working part time and continuing to take classes this term including biochem, but biochem is the only upper div science class I've taken/started to take. The only series I haven't *re*-completed yet is Physics - which I will have done at least by the end of this summer.
Thanks very much for your help and advice. Feel free to PM me as well
