Try to retake NBDE p.1. and get 90+. That will definitely boost your application! Good luck! You have a great TOEFL and GPA stats!

Is score the only consideration to get into schools. i see people with scores more than 90+ wanting to retake. so much of confusion, good luck to u.

nationality???? Does it matter, so many factors.😡

hey himal,

most of the colleges also look for diversity of students in their programs.as many of the applicants are from India there are more chances of a person from some other country with the same stats as an Indian to get into the program.

good luck

yeah thats exactly wat i mean...it is not that indians dont get seats but most of the dental schools want diversity so either u shud get really gud scores like 90+ or some extra credentials esp if u r indian....i applied in 3 but heard from none...my score is 85....
gud luck
