Hi everyone,
I'm thinking of applying to dental school next cycle and would like to get any input as to my chances/areas of my application to improve between now and next summer.
Undergrad institution: USA - Top 30 Nationally, Top 5 Public University
Resident - North Carolina
Major - Quantitative Biology & Chem minor
cumGPA - 3.41
sGPA - 3.2
Shadowing - 20hrs Dentistry(and counting...) + 50 hrs MD
Volunteering - 50hrs(and counting...)
Research - 2 years of bioinformatics & genome research + currently doing infectious disease research at a top 10 University in my post-bac year
DAT-?? (Not yet taken)
I know i need to get my shadowing and volunteering hours up, which I am currently doing. I also am hoping to improve my GPA/sGPA--I am currently taking Biochemistry at the Top 10 university I work at, and will also either take Physics or Anatomy next semester as well.
I know it's hard to get a complete idea of my application without my DAT scores but what schools would you guys recommend I apply to??
I would love to apply to:
UNC
Maryland
VCU
MUSC
UIC-Chicago
Any other ideas/input would be greatly appreciated!!
