Hey y'all I need to narrow down this list to 9 schools! I'm a Texas applicant and would really love some fellow pre-dental input on which schools I should take out!
Here are my stats: DAT: 19/ Overall GPA: 3.7/ Science GPA 3.65/ Non Science GPA 3.8

Hey there, I think you should take out one of the AZ, FL and CA schools just b/c two is too many for one state and probably new york as well b/c thats unnecessary. Dont over apply! 9 schools is pretty expensive unless thats not a problem for you, but why arent you applying to the texas schools?

Hey! I already applied for the 3 in Texas but it's so competitive that I'm applying to out-of-state as well to cover all my bases!

ok I see =) Well, how much are you willing to spend if you were to get interviews at all of these schools? just something to think about. You are bound to get into at least half of those. I only applied to 4 schools, might limit my chances, but my odds are just as good anywhere else.

Yeah, I guess I'm just paranoid about not getting in anywhere haha. But good luck to you!
