which program is this?
 
😳 oops Im looking for a program in San Francisco/norcal and misread that
 
1) accepted to Barry and Boston University
2) overall 3.1, I don't know my science off the top of my head, but I assume it's a bit lower.
3) MCAT 26R
4) denied from none
5) applied to Barry, Boston, and I think Loyola but I don't think my committee letters ever got there, Boston was my first choice so I didn't bother to sort out that mess.

...This is a joke, right?
 
Umm, were you unsuccessful applying to dental school already? Those numbers are competitive for most schools, last I looked. Not only that, an SMP doesn't seem like it would help much since you already have a solid science GPA.


I applied 14 dental schools this 2011 cycle, but I didn't get any interview invitation yet. Everyone including my school pre-health adviser told me I will get in without a doubt, but I didn't. I don't know why though. I am graduating in May and going to apply the coming 2012 cycle again, but I also want to do SMP just in case I fail again. I know it is risky but it will be better for me because I don't know why I didn't get in this cycle. Without knowing the reason, doing nothing for a year will be a terrible waiting for me.🙁

If everything you have said is true, then an SMP won't help. The hole in your application is elsewhere, maybe one or more of the following:
1) no clinical experience
2) no shadowing
3) no research
4) no ECs of any kind
5) crappy LORs
6) Late application

That being said, I don't know squat about the DAT so i've no idea if your score is good or not. So that too could be an issue
 
You need to call a few schools and find out about your app. I'm thinking you might have some severe spelling mistakes in your personal statement or one of your LOR's said you were a murderer.

As stated previously, an SMP will not help you. If you have taken most, or all of your science pre req courses and maintained a 3.96, you've proven you can handle d-school curriculum.

Oh, and 20 academic average and 20 total science is good for all the non DAT takers. It is around the 87th percentile.

I am currently deciding between MIDWESTERN and NYU for getting into A dental school..... and advice?
 
1. What SMP(s) you got into: Rosalind Franklin (attending), Georgetown, Tulane CMB
2. What your GPA/Science GPA is: ~3.35 for both
3. What was your DAT/MCAT/PCAT scores: 34
4. What SMP(s) you were denied from so far: Tulane ACP (alternate list)
 
1. What SMP(s) you got into: Univ. of Cincinnati, Univ. of Toledo MSBS, Rosalind Franklin BMS, EVMS (attending)
2. What your GPA/Science GPA is: 3.3/3.2
3. What was your DAT/MCAT/PCAT scores: 35
4. What SMP(s) you were denied from so far: none

If I could go back in time, I'd have applied earlier (than May) just to avoid all the stress and anxiety of being rejected and not having anything to do during a gap year.
