Does anyone know how many students apply to dental school each cycle and how many available seats at dental schools there are?
I once heard that only 50% of students applying to med school get in each cycle, but I assume it's different for dental.
 
Check the ADEA guide...or...if you don't want to spend $35 there are posts with people linking free pages of the book.

With that said, if I'm not mistaken 40% applicants get in...someone correct me. If you want actual numbers, again, ADEA book
 
Last published numbers in the 2011 ADEA Guide:

Total Applicants: 12,001
Total Enrollees: 4,955
