I just took my DAT today.
got 25 PAT and 23 AA, 23 total science.

do u think i have chance at california schools as a non-resident Asian-American?
i heard cali schools are very stringent on nonresidents and especially Asians.


what schools should i be aiming at (if non-cali)?


i have no idea what to look for in dental schools other than tuition and location....
 
With those scores, you have a shot at all CA schools. But obviously you're never guaranteed anywhere. Also, your GPA and ECs matter as well not just the DATs. So given that those are solid, you should at least get interviews at most schools in Cali.

Yeah if you have a good GPA I'm sure you'll get interviews there. Those scores are very high.
 
your grades are great and if you are the right FIT for the school, you will get in.

Non exactly clear what you mean by "stringent", but with 40% of the applicants in the Asian category and ~50% of the enrollees, draw your own conclusions. State supported institutions are not particularly fond of non residents.
