I submitted AADSAS on Late Nov. and retook DAT Mid-Late December.

I improved from 17 to 22 on TS / 17 to 21 on AA with 3.83 GPA at Barry.
But my undergrad. gpa is so low.:scared:
Please give me your insights and appreciate if you could share yours as well.

Here's the list of schools I applied:
Tufts, BU, NYU, UoP, Case, Temple, Nova, Creighton, Midwestern AZ, USC

Any opinions would be appreciated thx

It doesn't take a genius to tell you your undergrad GPA will hurt you. But your DAT's are solid. When did you finish your undergrad? Is Barry a post-bach?

In any case I think your DATs will show dental schools you are capable, you need to show them you really want it. My advice; make up for it with your letters of recs, your track record shadowing and showing an interest and understanding of dentistry, and get your application in within the first week of June.

How bad was your undergrad GPA?

You applied really late in the cycle. I don't want to be the bearer of bad news but applying late and having a questionable undergrad GPA isn't a good sign. Honestly, I would start getting stuff ready for the next cycle. You might still get an interview but I wouldn't hang on to hope. Apply again in June/July and you should be good to go next semester.

Your DAT score is fine, whats your total GPA and your total sGPA now?

Schools dont fully isolate undergrad and grade. They'll look more at total GPAs and Grad performance.
 
Sorry for the confusion~
That was my gf's comment for a couple year's ago cycle.
Now I am trying to get into dental school as well.
Crossing my fingers~
