Hey guys!
So now that we're getting into May, I'm starting to look at this upcoming application cycle. I applied last cycle and received one interview at UDM, which placed me on their waitlist. My LOR's weren't mailed out until September 2, so I feel like I may have messed up by not getting everything submitted earlier on in the cycle. I'm also a Canadian applicant. So these are the stats I applied with:
sGPA --> 3.27
oGPA --> 3.38
PAT --> 20
QR --> 16
RC --> 23
BIO --> 21
GC --> 18
OC --> 23
TS --> 20
AA --> 20
As for EC's, I volunteer with a couple of different charity foundations and community programs and I've also shadowed at a dental clinic for quite some time. My LOR's were decent, and I feel that my PS was really strong.
So my question to you guys is, what should I do to improve my chances of getting accepted this next cycle? I was debating on retaking the DAT, especially since that 16 and 18 really bother me, but I feel that it might be a bit too late if I want to get my application submitted earlier than last time. I also graduated this year, so I'm going to have a year off. Any ideas on what I could do during this time to help my chances? Any advice would really be appreciated!
Thanks!
EDIT: I also received a C- in my intro chemistry 101 class during my first year. I took the 102 class, and was able to do better. Should I redo the class? Or just take a 200-level chemistry class? Or not worry about it?
