Need advice

Hello All,

So I know everyone is sick of the "what are my chances" questions but i just really need to know what I should do since I want to apply soon. I have a decent gpa (cGPA 3.7+, sGPA 3.6+), and I hope to take the DAT soon which I'm not too worried about. I also have some shadowing, some dental related volunteering, some non-dental related volunteering (I plan on volunteering and shadowing more...). I am also a part of my university's pre-dental club which is very active and very well known to the dental schools in Texas. However, I have no leadership and no research experience. Will this hurt me? Should I try to possibly pick up a research opportunity for the summer? Btw I am a Texas resident. Any advice would be appreciated! 🙂

Take your DATs and then come back to this thread.

The more important question is, are YOU very active in your pre-dental club?
