Hey, I just wanted to know what my chances are and if I have any, where I should apply?

Cum. Gpa: 3.5
Science Gpa: 3.1
DAT: 20

I did horrible my first two years. Made 3 C's, one in cell bio and in both ochems which killed my science gpa. Then last 2 yrs, I basically made A's in everything.

Worked at two doctors offices.
Shadowed a dentist and two doctors
Volunteered at hospital for about 400 hrs
Volunteer for Big Brother
Volunteer for a domestic abuse hotline

I'd say you're a bit better than middle of the pack and should have a reasonable chance, provided you get your app out ASAP or sooner.

it depends on what that 20 on your DAT looks like. Was it some low sections some high ones or all about 20?

So I take it you were premed before predent? I'm not sure how applicable medical experience is.

Anyway, we aren't the admissions committee, and you aren't either. So just apply! Your DAT seems good and will compensate for a lower GPA, IMO.

I would check out the Devry Institute, cause basicaly your screwed.....😛😛
Dude addcomms like to see improvement, if you had a rocky start and then kicked some butt, you should probably have nothing to worry about as long as you can communicate this affectively during your interviews. Good Luck
