Is there anyone who can help me in my adasas application???I already applied in so many collleges for 2005 cycle, but unfortunately I didnt get in because I was finishing prerequirements.....I got call from UNC, but they need 20 in DAT...I am going to retake DAT in August......I started to fill apllication in ADASAS. Should I change my personnel statement or I should keep it as it is..........IF I need to change in it, tell me what part of personnel statment I will change. Personnel statement means what you had desire to get in dental school, why,, etc........Will it change after time????? 😕

I thought it does not matter if you are "finishing pre-reqs" the year before dental school at all. What's more, I am still finishing up one class right at this moment before dental school starts in August (summer class). As for your personal statement - I believe you definately should change it. You need to put in some stuff that you have done during the past year or are planning to do (post-bac etc.) that shows you have matured and are now a better candidate for dental school. Most schools expect a changed personal statement for re-applicants. How do you have a 3.2 science GPA and a 3.7 BBCP GPA? That is quite a big jump when all your BCP should be included in science.
