So I'm in need of some advice and opinions on my chances of getting into dental school. I'm a Hispanic male currently a Junior perusing a major in biology. Below are the list of my credentials.

3.2 GPA
20 DAT
Minor in Business
Deans list twice
Member of pre health club
3 Letters of recommendation- 2 from science professors. 1- from a business professor
Job shadowed 2 general dentists and 1 orthodontist.
Have 70 hours of community service
Have 80 hours of shadowing

I've spoken to my adivisor about my situation and he said, if I am able to show an upward trend over the next year and a half I should be able to get in. If anyone could be honest, give me their advice, and experiences that would be great. I'm really debating on what I should do.

Thank you.
