Hello everyone,

I have recently taken my DAT. The scores are as follows:
PAT: 22
QR: 19
RC: 19
Bio: 20
Orgo:20
GC: 24
TS:21
AA:20

To go along with my DAT scores I have a 3.61 GPA, Bio 1: B+, Bio 2: A, GC 1: B+, GC2: B, Orgo 1 lec: B+. lab:B, Orgo 2 lab&Lec: A-, Phys 1: A, and will be completing Phys 2 and Biochem in the Fall of 2015. I have extensive hours shadowing 300+ at one dental office to which i grew a strong relation with, 300+ hours volunteering at a low income private medical clinic, and over 6 years of experience working as a NYC licensed beach lifeguard. I just would like to hear what you guys think my chances are at the following schools and if i should add eliminate any ? I'm a NY resident and went to CUNY--Brooklyn College.

UCONN
UCSF
Tufts
Univ. of Maryland
Rutgers
NYU
Stony Brook
Univ. Buffalo
Penn?
Temple
Case Western
university of Pittsburgh

Thank you guys !

I'm curious. Why UCSF out of all the CA schools?

Imo ucsf is more deserving of that question mark than Penn. I'd take out ucsf since you're oos and don't have any research. If you want to add a California school, consider the privates. Pacific, Western, USC, Loma Linda
