Does anyone else feel like this entire process is crazy? This was my first application cycle and I did not realize how stressful it can be. I applied late and I have yet to hear anything. I am almost positive that I will not get in this Fall bc. my stats are low and I applied late. But my experience in the dental office is overwhelming. 🙂 I still don't think I have a chance for Fall 2005 but I do plan to re-take and ace the DAT this summer. But I just wanted to say the whole process is driving me nuts. I almost want to have the rejection letter just for closure!!! Anybody know what I mean?

Yes it is and expensive
 
Been there, done that. I know how difficult it is. Good luck with the reapplying. By this time next year, you guys will not only have acceptances, but you will also know about everything that crosses the predental forum. You will be pros!!

How did you improve your app?
 
I retook the DAT. I took courses, but that was basically for enrichment because that GPA wasnt going to budge any.

I went from a 19/17/18 to a 21/20/18. That was the only real difference in my application.
