Hi all

I was wondering if any1 here had Interviewed @ Tufts...since l have 1 later this wk......Also, since i applied late in the cycle (like many canadians) due to the DAT's being in Nov. i was wondering if any1 could give me a rundown on my chances at:

Upenn
Uconn
Meharry
Columbia
Marquette

if i had applied B4 Nov. ..say around june

I have a Cumal. GPA of 3.2 with a 3.0 Science Gpa, a 26 DAT Academic and 21 DAT PAT.

So far i've interviewed at Temple, BU, NYu

thanks

Wow you academic average is awsome! You sci average is a little low, as well as your academic, but Im sure your dat will make up for that. I had an interiew with Tufts but canceled it due to deciding that I will be be attending UPenn. I can tell you that you have very good chances at Penn as long as you have some extracurricular acitivites as Penn is looking for well rounded people. Personally unless you are a minority you dont have the best chances at Meharry, and it is really not a school I would reccomend with your stats, as there are much better schools you can get into. I really dont know anything about Uconn, but I know Columbia is a lot like Penn when it comes to admissions. Im not sure with Marquette either as they have a brand new dental school, and dont normally even interview for admissions. Hope this helped some.

Well, like it said in the previous post, your AA is really high. I can tell you that at UCONN, you need at least a 19 on the science average and a pretty good science gpa. They don't really care that much about PAT. your science gpa may be a little low for them, but it is worth a shot anyway 🙂 Just to let you know, they usually have like around 1000 applications, and interview 160 people. Out of those 160, they accept about 40 ppl into their class.

You'll probably get into Tufts with those stats...once you have an interview, you have a VERY good chance of getting in.

I don't know that much about Marquette (as far as stats go...I just know they don't interview) or Columbia. I'm sure Columbia looks for a good science gpa and science dat since they're curriculum is more biomedical based (but don't quote me on that ).

Anyhow, I hope this helps!

Good luck!
