Hi, so I am trying to decide on whether I should apply this cycle or wait till the next cycle? I have not taken my DAT, I plan on taking it at the end of July. I have about 18 credits that will contribute to my science GPA my senior year (including physics and anatomy).
About me:
oGPA: 3.39
sGPA: 3.14
300 clinical hours
600 research hours
100 community service hours
150 hospital volunteer hours
have served on 3 e-boards
I have worked every semester in college
URM if that helps anything

Difficult to say without DAT score, as a URM i would imagine if you got a 21+ you would have decent shot!

Definitely get that sGPA up since dental school is science heavy. Take the DAY and see where you stand. But study for it and get those science sections high to prove you understand the material. Also consider applying to some schools that are “more research heavy” since that seems to be your niche.
