Hello fellow Canadians and American counterparts,
I have recently applied to these schools:
Loma Linda University, University of the Pacific, Nova, Iowa, BU, Detroit Mercy, Buffalo, CASE, UofPitt, and Roseman.
I have completed 176+ hours of job shadowing at general dentist's clinic and orthodontist's clinic.
I have volunteered for almost 500 hours at various organizations, including the Human Rights Commission, Department of Philanthropy, Crescent Films, Youth-Drop in etc.
I play hockey, volleyball, golf, basketball and I am on an organized soccer team, I used to DJ/promote for one of the biggest sound-crews in my city.
I have worked over 15 Jobs in my life, retail, sales, customer service, etc.
My DAT scores are as follows:
19 BIO
20 CHEM
20 PAT
19 AA
17 RC
28 PAT (I know this only applies to Canada, but I was in the 100th percentile, showing my manual dexterity on small scale)
MY AADSAS Grades are as follows:
BCP -------3.22
SCI --------3.28
NON SCI 3.50
TOT--------3.63
There has been an upward trend in my education over the course of 171 Credit hours (57 classes), I am also completing 12 new credit hours (4 classes) this year so that I meet all the prerequisite's for N. America and Australia. My GPA has been seen to increase as follows:
2004 Fall------ 3.50
2005 Winter - 2.83
2005 Fall ------3.00
2006 Winter - 3.00
2006 Fall ------2.15
2007 Winter - 2.78
2007 Spring - 3.33
2007 Fall-------2.89
2008 Winter - 2.56
2008 Fall ------3.58
2009 Winter---3.83
2009 Fall ------3.75
2010 Winter---3.50
2010 Fall-------3.78
2011 Winter - 4.11
2011 Fall------ 4.08
2012 Winter - 3.92
2012 Fall ----- 3.92
2013 Winter - 4.11
I was wondering what you all think my chances are at gaining an Interview this year. I submitted my Application on August 27, 2013. Is that too late? Also, would there be any other schools you suggest I apply to? I want to apply to as many as possible as to increase my chances.
Your help is greatly appreciated. I wish you all luck in the application process.
Thanks,
Future Dentist
