Can anyone that has been accepted to a postbacc or masters with low GPAs, especially from UCSF or SFSU's postbacc program post their stats?
I have an extremely low GPA, ~2.75, pre-dental. I do however have plenty of internship/shadowing/dental-club/leadership experience that I am hoping will prove how passionate and determined I am about getting into dental school. I know apps are open for UCSF and SFSU Feb 1st for summer acceptance, but I'm definitely open to going to any postbacc that will accept me.
TL;DR: please post your stats (GPA, DAT score(?)) if you were accepted into a postbacc
Separate question: some postbacc schools require you to have taken the DAT/MCAT/GRE , while some do not (including UCSF and SFSU). Did those that applied/got into a program take the DAT? I'm planning on taking the DAT by the end of this month, but honestly I'm not sure how well my score will be. It also seems counterintuitive since many post-baccs are to help prepare you for the test..
