Does anyone know how many people are on wait lists for dental schools? for example if the school has 90 seats do 90 additional applicants typically get wait listed? or are there more/less added to the wait lists?

Different from a school to a school. There are some schools that go through their waitlist very fast and there are some schools that don't even have a waitlist right now and it will be created after all the interviews and the movement on the waitlist could be very slow. It could be different from a year to a year, so it really depends. But 90 additional applicants on the waitlist for a school with 90 seats seems to be too much. If you want to know what's going on with your school this year, find a thread for your school's waitlist. That is probably the best place to find out.
