Compare that to the average accepted GPA's, seems a bit on the low end but if you have great DAT and EC, I don't think that will be a problem.

I have a 3.25 overall gpa and a 3.15 Science gpa.

Is that good enough for dental school?


The quick answer is yes, that is enough for dental school. But there is a lot more that goes into it. If you get a 16 on your dat then no, your 3.25 gpa isn't very good. If you get a 24 though, then yes, your gpa is 100% fine. With that GPA I would shoot for at least a 19 on the DAT to be competitive though. Also, EC's have a lot to do with it.
 
agreed with most replies here. Your GPA is better than a 3.0. So just dominate the DAT with 22's or higher and have great EC's, PS, and LORs.
