Hi guys, so i know theres like a hundred of these on here, but ive been reading conflicting things. i know that no one can really tell for sure, but humor me
AA: 22 TS: 22 PAT: 20 Bio: 20 OC: 25 GC: 25 QR: 17 RC: 24
Overall: 3.6 Sci: 3.4
Psych major, top tier college however not much in school related extracurriculars.
Worked on one psych research project for a summer. Been active in one charity for 4 years, one summer at a hospital, but thats about it. In addition, I've worked throughout college, and have only really gone through about 6 months were I did not have a job (family issues). I now assist at a dental office and also work in the front as well. Have been doing that for about 1 year now and I know hell write me a glowing recommendation. Don't have a great recommendation form science professors (since I'm not a science major), but have one from both my research advisor and psych professor.
I plan on applying June 1, and spending all of May on my personal statement.
Thanks so much guys!! Everyone here is always so helpful, its truly amazing!
I think you'll be alright. Since you have a good sci GPA and scored well on the sci portion of your DAT, a not-so-stellar LOR from a sci prof won't hurt you. You seem well rounded and have assisting experience, so that's a plus.
However, the application doesn't open until June 4th this year. In addition to your in state schools, apply to a range of schools that interest you.
Good luck

I'm doing a committee letter thru my school so hopefully the rather generic science letter wont matter as much 😕
And I have no idea what happened to me in qr, totally underestimated that section. I was using destroyer, but not really timing myself. Big mistake

I graduated with a degree in psychology from A&M - I was accepted to 2 dental schools. You scores are great, and a solid GPA. 👍
