I ask this question purely based on GPA?
Because most classes are based on class average, would it be a disadvantage to go to a highly competetive university when applying to dental school. If one's GPA is 3.2 at a school like Berkeley or Columbia, wouldn't you expect it to be close to a 4.0 at a less competitive university?
I understand that some dental schools will give you a couple tenths if you went to a highly competitive university, but does it really compensate?
Thanks.
