I accepted my spot at UCLA, turning down a few other schools that I also loved.
I am very excited to attend UCLA, but I am concerned that my DAT scores are ~ the average stats for the school (DAT 23/23, GPA 3.95). I know that we can't all be at the top of the curve, but do you think that those who come in with average stats for a dental school class struggle more or face an uphill battle than those who are above average? I understand that my DAT scores are higher than the national average, and I am not trying to get people to blow smoke my way. I am just wondering if / how strongly your DAT scores in comparison to the school stats translate to how you will do in dental school. For those who are not aware, UCLA is P/F/H.
Any personal experiences with this, at any school? Thank you.
