hey everyone. so im kind of new to this. but does anyone know if the schools see the breakdown of all your scores like gen chem and ochem or is it just the AA/TS/and PAT? Thanks.
 
thanks!. do you hav any advice on how to get dental experience. do i just go to some random dentist and ask to shadow?

that is what i would do, if i had no connections with local dentists. I shadowed through our predental society shadowing program and eventually got an academic internship at the hospital dental dept.
 
Yupp, thats what i did.. i went to different local dentists and asked to shadow. Some general dentists, and an orthodontist. 🙂
 
ok so i just got the results back from one of those free kaplan tests that they do at the centers. i got 18B 18GC 13OC 19RC 18PAT 22QC...i know the math is a good score. but how about the others. i know i did bad on orgo bc i ran out of time. but are the others decent?
 
oh also. i know the application cycle doesnt being until June 3rd but is it possible to work on it before then. i think i was reaading somewhere on these threads that you could start working on the actual application in the middle of may but you cant submit it until june.

Honestly, no... I got a 17, got 2 interviews, and was put on 2 waitlists (and I have a 3.96 GPA and have worked as a dental assistant for 3yrs). So even the rest of your application is awesome, those scores won't be good enough at a lot of schools. Just keep working hard and I would try for 20+ in every section
 
DAT Destroyer is good for OChem...
Kaplan material was good for BIO... just my opinion though
