Hello all,
I know there's a bunch of threads in regards to this question. I plan to apply to dental school this upcoming summer and am currently studying for the DAT, but after further consideration, I'm worried and stressed in regards to my stats.
I graduated with a business degree but took all the pre-reqs required for dental school. I received ONE 'WF' in orgo 1, which I had never known that AADSAS counts towards my GPA. I retook orgo 1 and got a A- in it.
Overall, my sGPA is a 2.94 and cumulative GPA is a 3.56. (If the WF could be removed, my sGPA would go up to a 3.1 about)
During undergrad and even before college, I had to work 2-3 jobs and eventually started my own businesses. I had to financially support myself and my family due to having family members that were disabled. I have a great load of volunteer hours (approx. 600 hours) in a dental clinic and oral surgeon's office, along with 3000+ hours working in a hospital.
Now, if I kill the DAT, do I really have a chance? Appreciate the feedback.
