Hello! application cycle is beginning soon.
@FeralisExtremum and I are D1s at columbia college of dental medicine. We are both experts at this stuff because we have collectively answered these questions many times on SDN. If you would like us to chance you/tell you where to apply, we am more than happy to help you! Just fill out the form below and we will give you my advice. We are in finals ssn so it may take some time to respond (we will respond in an adequate amount of time though)

misc info you think is important: I have an MIP from freshman year, and an arrest for trespassing and resisting arrest sophomore year. I participated in a diversion program and the arrest/charges were expunged. I plan on being completely honest in my application. I was walking back to a bar to retrieve my debit card and accidentally walked through a construction site. I honestly thought I was clear of it.. anyway, cops were waiting on the other side. I panicked when they said "under arrest" and took off running. I stopped on my own a few yards way, but they still charged me with resisting. What are my chances?
