Hey guys,

I'm entering my senior year (fall 2017) - I took this year off to dedicate time to start a company but now want to return & proceed with my dental school aspirations.

GPA:

cGPA: 3.78
BCP + Science: 3.64
Non-Science: 3.99
*****BCP: 3.33******

Now I realize my BCP is lower than it should be.. this is due to Bs/Cs early in my academic career. I've managed to create an upward trend and receive A's / -A's since then but my question is:

Should I apply with my above stats or continue with my senior year and complete the courses I have to finish for my degree (considering they're mostly sciences and this could help my BCP)?

Your stats excluding BCP are well above average, go ahead and apply for this upcoming cycle. If you do well on the DAT I have no doubt that you will receive plenty of interviews.
