Hello everyone,
I applied to 9 dental schools this past cycle and interviewed at 2 schools but did not receive any acceptances. My DAT scores were 19 AA/20 TS/ 19 PAT. I majored in Bio and had an overall GPA of 3.63 and a 3.52 BCP. I have 200+ hours of shadowing, 200+ hours of research, 100+ hours of volunteering, good LORs, etc. I have the option to either get my MBA in the year off or go through a dental assistant training program and work as a dental assistant in a clinic or perhaps a dental practice once the program is finished. What choice would enhance my chances of getting accepted to a school this upcoming cycle? Thanks for all of the help!
