I agree. These schools are different from one another, e.g. state versus private, and one's experience with one doesn't always match someone else's so trying to compare dental schools to one another is like lining up apples and oranges and doing the same. Every school has it's own set of criteria what it is looking for. The best thing for you to do is to look up the stats for the most recent matriculating class for each school and compare those numbers against your own. Doing so will give you a pretty good idea if you have a shot at an interview (the outcome of which is key to the admissions decision).
