Ok, so I am ready to submit my ADDSAS application except for one thing: My school's committee letter. My dilemma is whether i should apply now without the committee letter and take my chances being an earlier applicant or waiting for the committee letter in late August which 85% of students get into at least one school with the letter. If i submit early and schools look at my app before they can send the letter later then i have only hurt myself i feel like. Personally, I feel like i should wait because my DAT scores are not the best. I have 18AA, 19TS and 19PAT.My gpa is 3.6 and i have volunteer and shadowing experience. Anybody with any advice on either waiting or submitting now would be great! THANKS!!!🙂
 
I was in a really similar situation as you are.
My suggestion is submit now. The school's will get your application and be able to review while the committee creates your letter. As soon as their done they can send it off to the dental schools.
