I guess I'll be the first to not flame you lol.

Science GPA is a little bit low, DAT scores above average, extracurriculars are nice. What state do you live in?

I just wanted to compare with others and understand where I stand.

Thanks for being so kurt and frank lol. WA.
 
You're a president of a predental club, you should have a rough idea where you stand... Anyway solid stats all around, how much shadowing do you have?
around 100 at least. I plan on getting up to 200 hours of shadowing and 200 hours of volunteering by june tho
 
actually i realized my stats are pretty close to yours lolololz. except twice the EC.

you should be alright, just make sure you apply early

People around me keep telling me to apply early and stuff, but does it really increase your chances?

Also, if you do not mind me asking, where do you attend now?!
 
6 years at Sunday school? Just go to loma linda...sort of a self-imposed quarantine they've got going on. You'll get in.

not a seventh day adventist, so going to Loma Linda would probably be a pain in the dingus for me. I just love being part of the community and giving back thats why I have done the six years lol.

you have no idea how much it helps applying early. I applied in october and got 4 interviews ( i got damn lucky). I have a friend with a 3.9 and he applied sept. and he only got 1 interview...
