I graduated with a bachelors in biomedical sciences with an overall GPA of 3.69 and sGPA of 3.65 and my scores in the DAT are AA 19 PAT 21 RC 21, I took it however twice the first time I got an AA of 18 and scored 18 on the PAT.
I put in over 100 hours of dental shadowing mostly at a general dentist but also shadowed an orthodontic as well, I volunteered at the Moffit Cancer Center at USF and also participated in a few organizations at my university. I'm applying hopefully this summer for 2011 I'm just working on my personal statement and getting the LORs ready. I was just wondering what my chances will be with my stats and which school would be best for me to apply I live in FL and I know UF is a very very tough school to get into alot of my friends that applied their with better DAT scores got denied so the only other school in FL is Nova and I plan on applying OOS just not sure which schools yet. If anyone can give me any advise or pointers/tips especially from those that got accepted already I would greatly appreciate it.
 
....yeah don't post if you're just looking for reassurances. try predents.com
 
hmm ok im new to this site I had no idea I thought this site was intended for questions like this :S
 
your stats seem very competitive, so you have a good chance of getting accepting to UF. there is no need to stress out. also, trying looking on predents.com

anyway, welcome to sdn 🙂
 
Thank you very much dvduplex for that..🙂 I will hopefully apply to UF and Nova and maybe 5 other schools around the east coast
 
Yeah, your stats seem fine too me! And EC's are pretty good as well. I think as long as you don't blow an interview (and believe me it CAN happen) or create a terrible personal statement you should be fine!

Good luck!:luck:
