My Stats:
GPA: Possibly (not calculated by AADSAS yet) 3.5
DAT Scores AA/PAT/QR/RC/TS: 20/19/18/22/20 (Taken 11/04)
I am currently a Dental Hygiene Student (passed national boards, graduating in a month, getting ready to take CalBoards) with about 200 hours of clinic time/dental experience. I was involved in undergraduate research and held some leadership positions in community service programs. Before the hygiene program, I worked full-time for a pharmaceutical company for five years researching a rheumatoid arthritis drug.
I guess my question is, do I have a fighting chance of getting interviews in CA with my weak GPA and average PAT scores? Should I take the DAT again since it's been 3 years? Any input would be appreciated. Thanks for taking the time to read this.
