No DAT= impossible to chance you

What exactly do you want from this post? You might have a chance at those schools. I'm sure you knew that already. But if this will validate you, then alright. SDN doesn't know where you want to go. Apply where you'd see yourself living based on location, what is in your budget, and, most importantly, where your stats match (huh maybe that's why it's so hard to "chance you" without a DAT).

AND PLEASE DON'T BE SO RUDE ON SDN, especially if you're the one asking for help.

Pick one school to submit your app to AADSAS, a school you will 100% apply to, then, after you get your DAT back, add more. You're an adult. You found SDN for yourself. You can figure this out.

I didn't mean to come off rude (if i was rude), I just edited my post because I am mainly asking for advise on what schools to remove/add on my list. Sorry if I came off the wrong way. Also I am not trying to help validate anything, I just want feedback/ criticism from fellow peers.

send your application to GRU when you submit. Then take the DAT. Your GPA will take a few weeks to be verified and sent out and you can add the rest of your schools later when you have your score. Then look through this guide and see if it helps you
