First off, my GPA is a very low, I know. I have very strong extracurriculars/leadership/research/LORs (basically everything else minus my GPA looks good lol) I am a rising senior at a top 20 university which I'm hoping helps since I am also getting a committee letter from my school.

OGPA: 2.95
SGPA: 2.75
DAT: 21AA, 20 TS, 22 PAT

I am planning on applying this coming cycle and am a Tennessee resident. Super nervous about applications but wondering if you guys have any thoughts on my chances?
 
Your committee doesn't have a gpa cut off? Mine won't do a letter for you if you have less than a 3.2.

You will need to do a SMP or some kind of grad program. Your Dat scores are good but not good enough to overcome a 2.7 sgpa.

I would say save your money and raise your GPA, but since you say you're a TN resident I'd say at least apply to Memphis...they care EXPONENTIALLY more about DAT than GPA. I too am a TN resident that had a 3.92 oGPA and sGPA but only a 19AA with a 15QR...I was accepted into 6 schools, but Memphis wasn't one. Also, FWIW, I was in-state as well.
