I posted a similar thread about a year ago.
To recap:
DAT
20AA, 20TS, 21PAT (lowest: 19QR)
Undergrad
oGPA: 3.15
sGPA: 2.5
BCP: 2.7
(If only counting recent undergrad science courses, both sGPA and BCP are around 3.0)
Graduate (SMP, about 75% complete)
oGPA: 4.0
sGPA: 4.0
BCP: 4.0
Cumulative GPA (undergrad + graduate)
oGPA: 3.23
sGPA: 2.8
BCP: 3.1
This will be my third time applying. I'm worried dental schools are going to be looking at the cumulative numbers instead of the high graduate GPA I've kept up for the past year.
I'm trying to go to the cheapest school I can get into with my stats in the East, preference in New England (but not schools open only a few years). Here's my list:
U Conn
Rutgers
Buffalo (first choice due to in-state tuition)
U Pitt
Temple
CWRU
Maryland
Stony Brook (not sure if I have a shot here)
And the following in other areas/larger tuitions just in case:
USC Ostrow
Western
Nova
Tufts
Are there any schools I'm overlooking with my stats? Or schools that will weigh my graduate GPA more?
On another note: should I consider retaking the DAT?
