if i apply 30 dental schools in 30 different states, and they all want me to come for the interview....should i get 30 air plain tickets, get a texi, go to school, get texi, go back to airport, go to different state...and so on?

Go to 5-7 max. That gives you pretty good odds. If money isn't an issue, then go to them all. But if you have decent stats, I feel 5-7 is a good number. You are already thinking about this and haven't even applied yet? Thats crazy prepardness. You're a "plan ahead" kind of person! Good for you. 😉

It depends how confident you are about your application. If you are invited to interview at 30/30 schools, you are probably a solid applicant and should go only to schools that you are serious about (maybe 5-10).

If you are invited to 10/30 schools and you think you are a borderline applicant...figure out a way to make it to as many interviews as possible.

Just a piece of advice, but if you're really wanting to make yourself as good of a candidate as possible, I'd get away from NVCC as soon as you can. I know several schools frown upon the "community college learner's permit" style of education. Get yourself over to George Mason or somewhere similar (you're in a good area already when it comes to the availability of undergrad education).

By the way, you do realize that applying to 30 schools is going to drain your bank acount......just in application fees.

how did u know that I may go to George Mason?
My transfer options are...
UVA = if i do well in honor courses of community college that I take next semester.(4.0 from challenging course)

JMU = if i keep up 3.8 from challenging courses + they got tons of hot girls.

GMU = safe and comfortable school....🙂 maybe too comfortable without girls...
