Hey guys.... after hearing a friend rant about this site... i figured I would take a look and he is right this site is great. I was hoping someone who knows better than me could tell me what my chances are for Dental School this year. I had a 20/16 on my DAT a year ago. I retook it and my scores are as follows:

AA:21
PA:19
OC:20
GC:21
B: 20
RC:19
QR:25

The reading comp is a 51st percentile even though its a 19 so that has me a bit worried. My GPA could be better as well. I have a 3.43 overall but only a 3.08 science because of 14 credits of 2.5 in math. I applied in May and as of now... most schools have just about everything they need to complete my application. If anyone could get back to me and let me know what they think... I would really appreciate it.

Dont be worried about RC cause schools dont see your percentiles. If you applied in may I am shocked to hear you dont have any interviews yet with those scores. What schools did you apply to? I think you will do very well and should be getting many interviews and hopefully acceptances in the near future. Good luck.

I think you should be fine. Your scores are considered to be in the higher bracket. Decent GPA. If your extra-curricular stuff is decent, you'll likely get in. I think interviews are going to be rolling your way soon. G'luck.
