3.6gpa/3.4sgpa/TS20/AA19/What’s my chance and need help with school list?

[Dr.wang]

My DAT break down is

PAT:30
QR:19
RC:16
Bio:20
GC:19
OC:21

I have a D+ on physics II and C on organic chemistry.

I planed to retake physics from my college online.

Is there any suggestion on school list? I’ve already choose 12 and hope to apply for 20 schools in total.

What schools have you already chosen? Shadowing/volunteering? State of residence? The low RC may be a red flag for some schools, and I’d say your overall DAT is on the low end despite the very high PAT score.

What's your school list? Also check if your schools accept prereqs taken online, some don't I believe

I just updated about school lists! I asked a few and they said they will accept, but I felt less competitive if I took classes online

UCLA is a reach
otherwise it's a decent list

If you want to cut UMKC has a very low % of oos students

Thank you for saying that. UCLA tends to accept lots of Asian student so I hope I could be one of them. I love beach and asian food.

Are there any other schools will you recommend ?

That’s what I heard. My dentist said it’s a pretty new school so I might still have a chance.

I just want to add more school, do you have any recommendation on adding more schools

UCLA doesn't really accept students based on race...and they're picky with OOS applicants. I would say your DAT does not make you very competitive here and that you may be better off spending that app fee on another school. Also, Howard is a HBCU and favors minorities. UDM, MOSDOH, MWU IL, and UNE could be others to add, but they're all pretty expensive I think.

In 1919 the Kansas City Dental College merged with Western Dental College to form the Kansas City Western Dental College. It became the School of Dentistry of the University of Kansas City in 1941. In 1963 the school became the School of Dentistry at UMKC.

I’ll definitely look into those schools, I tried to avoid expensive school but I guess it’s good to have more choices

I wouldn't count on Creighton. A majority of their spots each year are already spoken for because of agreements with other states and nepotism. Being a private school, being a minority isn't giving you any extra points with them. Also they place a lot if weight on GPA and DAT, they typically weed out the first round based on that before even looking at the rest of your application
