Hey, im in my 2nd year at Dental school right now. I was wondering if anyone knows the stats for ortho residencies such as board scores, gpa's, amount of apps, and %'s etc. Im definitely interested in ortho (its either ortho or gpr if I dont get in). Thanks, im guessing 85 is probably the minimum to even consider applying but if anyone has more info that would be great. And how much more important are boards than class rank. If there's a website with all this info I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks
 
NBDE I score 99. D-school 3.95 cummulative. DAT 29. Undergrad 3.9. Also need to have a lifelong love of orthodontics as documented by your childhood orthodontist.

You have to be student body president too. And have six-pack abs.

My ortho said he didn't have to do this to get in, then again, he's been practicing for over two decades now so things may have changed since then.
