Hello I am a reapplicant. Since the last cycle I have'nt started any masters programs, but have taken a few extra science classes since to raise my GPA. I graduated December 2008. My app will be complete in a few days hopefully. What do you think, do I stand a chance at any of these schools? I plan on retaking the DAT again but not until early October. Thanks.

Overall your stats aren't really that bad. What was your science GPA from last year and how many schools did you apply to? Did you contact any of the schools and ask them why you weren't accepted and what you can do to improve your application? You're applying to a good number of schools so I think you have a decent chance. I don't know how out of state friendly Kentucky, Minnesota, OU, or Oregon is though b/c I haven't really researched any of those schools. Also, if you are definitely re-taking the DAT, why wait till October? If you indicate you are doing a re-take on your application, schools may not even begin to review your app until October. My advice is that if you want to do a re-take, do it by August, otherwise it will get pretty late. You may not even need to do a re-take. What are your individual section scores? Do you have a low RC score or something?

Chance = yes. But add Tufts.

Minnesota, Oklahoma, and Oregon really need to come off of that list if you are out-of-state, otherwise it is wasted money.

Your other choices are good. Definitely add Tufts like Renelar suggested. Temple should be on the list as well, and you could also include Creighton and UNLV. You definitely want to err on the side of applying to too many schools; there's nothing costlier than reapplying. Good luck.
