Hello Pre-Dents,
I applied this cycle with a 21DAT and a 3.49sGPA, 3.45oGPA -- After this fall semester I graduated and my GPA rose to a 3.55 sGPA and a 3.51 oGPA.
I applied to all the Texas schools as a resident, LECOM, NOVA, Western etc.. I was rejected within a week from NOVA (One professor took forever to send in his LOR), and rejected from LECOM a few months later.
I have not heard a single thing from the Texas schools, but from what I have been told from several dentists is that if I don't hear anything at the end of January - I'm going to have to reapply.
I have over 80 hours shadowing, lots of community service etc..
The only issue I can think of is that I applied in September, and I know that I will for sure get everything in DAY ONE this next time. But what could have gone wrong? Was applying in September really the killer for me? I thought I would at least snag one interview - and no I do not feel obligated to receive an interview, it has just been a rollercoaster of emotions going through this process as I'm sure all of you have gone through.
Thank you, I just want to know what went wrong..
