Does anyone know if it is too late for me to apply to dental school? I only applied to three schools in June, and now I am wishing I applied to more. I have a very high GPA/DAT score... so I'm not worried about that. I just don't want to spend the extra $$$ to apply to a few more schools if they won't even consider me at this point. Any advice?

Shouldnt be cheap and added more schools in the early part of the cycle so you wouldnt have to worry about it now. Doesnt matter how high your stats are, 3 schools is a pretty big gamble.
 
It's likely that you will get post december interviews but there is no reason to worry about your chances. If you get rejected it is likely that you may have just applied to late and schools picked people with possibly lower stats than you. With that being said, if there are only a few spots left and you get a post december interview with a 3.8 GPA and a 23 TS and AA there wouldn't be a huge reason to worry about getting accepted. Do it!!
