Reapplying this year. Had interviews last year shockingly (interview invites before the academic update ) and before a retake of my DAT last week. I am planning on applying the first day, which is June 4th. Have 4 letters of Recs (dentist, biochem teacher, endocrinology professor and a LOR from one of my volunteering organizations) already saved on interfolio. Last year I also didn't turn in my application until end of August. My PS is already done and edited very well I believe.
Last year here were my stats when I applied (before academic update)
G.P.A 3.20 (3.33 after update)
SGPA 3.11 (3.25 after update)
BCP. 3.11 (3.28 after update)
DAT scores now (last year my results were horrible with 2 scores at a 16 so I knew I had retake)
Bio-19 was a 16 last year
Gen Chem 21 same as last year
O Chem 20 was an 18 last year
QR 20 was an 18 last year
PAT 19 was a 16 last year
RC 22 was a 22 as well last year
Was a bit easier to study this year since I had a lot of my notes from last year, and also picked up destroyer, which helped my Bio and O chem. I didnt look at those 2 enough last year since I "thought" i knew enough. Studied for about 6.5 weeks with about 6-8 hour days usually and taking a day off here and there. Didn't study for RC and G chem i just quickly reviewed my notes from chad. I think since I knew i was good on those section helped me relax once in awhile to let my brain rest.
GPA NOW
GPA 3.4
SGPA-3.34
BCP---> 3.37
Volunteering hours I have 300+ at a dental office, thousands of hours of working full time while in work, 200 hours at hospital, and 800 in other volunteer hours
GPA in my last 73 semester units is a 3.63. In that 73 unit span my BCP GPA is 3.59 consisting of 48 units of BCP classes.
After applying last year I took 43 units since the application process started in June of last year and received a 3.83 while 28 of those classes were BCP classes and I received a 3.88 (classes included anatomy, o chem 2 lab, animal behavior, biochem, reproductive physio, another chem lab, cell bio, behavioral endocrinology, human sexuality class, a masters level bio class on reproductive technologies)
Obviously I started off really really really bad and finally got my act together. I was wondering how my stats look and if I maybe needed to retake my DAT.
Also would be recent trend be taken into account and how much might that help me?
