AA: 20
PAT: 18
GC: 21
OC: 20
Bio: 18
QR: 21
RC: 19

I know it depends on other factors besides gpa and dat...still is this a score I should be fine with???

Congrats hopelessdoc! great scores. How did you score on Achiever and topscore? Thanks.

Most of us gets a way higher actual scores compared to my TS and DA scores...but..me.. 😡 I thought bio is the strongest section for me cuz everytime whenever I just think of a topic randomly I can almost think of everything I have read for that topic but still I scored less compared to other sections...Bio quest weren't hard on exam but I think I got tricked by the wording otherwise there was nothing that really surprised me.."where is this from!!!"...anyway...to sum it up this about a month's hardcore study may be if I had put in more time result might be diff

I just used kaplan's blue book, their online subj tests, exams and TS, DA...

what od u think, do I have any chance??...Also I want to ask this...really worried if schools consider this into acct, I might not have that much of a chance than..I just have 78 undergrad credits so far!!! 🙁 do u think this might hurt my chances?

 

[kokobean]

your scores are pretty good! I definetely think you have a chance. 👍

I'm not sure if those seventy some credits will hurt you or not.. i mean at the time I applied I only had 70 - exactly. You're going to finish your degree though right? within a year?

 

[hopelessdoc]

yes I am definitely finishing up my undergrad but not not sure if I will be able to finish it up by next fall!!! I mean I might have to go for 16+ for the rest two sem...

 

[hopelessdoc]

congrats on your scores hopeless....on the first question on bio you have listed, what did it seem to be asking?
which Chordate is the most primitive? just asking because you have listed echinoderms in too?
thank you for helping us all out, damn nice of you. 🙂

[hopelessdoc]

AFAIK it was...

 

[teefRcool]

AFAIK it was something about "which one of all these are the most primitive of all chordates?"..

I think the answer is then echinoderms

 

[messenger]

what? echinoderms arent chordates though?
it would be tunicate, or lancelets (amphixous).....
anyone can correct me? 🙂

 

[JohnDoeDDS]

guys how can Ianswer these types of questions about chordats and stuff? I am not finished with the KAPLN Bio section (have 3 chapters left) Is all this stuff in there?

 

[messenger]

yes, these are in the kaplan book, classification chapter.
can anyone else confirm my answer to the above question?

As far as applying to dental schools with 70 credits, The Official Guide to Dental Schools (published by the ADEA every year with stats for each school) would be a great reference because it will tell you if there are minimum credit requirements for admission.

gud luck to everyone
