These "what are my chances" threads usually come from people who have below average stats, but your GPA is great and your DAT ain't too shabby either. I mean, you probably have a shot at most of them...off-hand, I know UNC is reeeally picky about out of state applicants though!

not on SDN , but OP you are fine- as long as you don't come off as a tool you will get in somewhere.

Of course, these are all my personal opnions and are by no means representative of the final decisions made by schools. I'm simply stating what I think based on my previous experience with some of these schools and/or what my friends experienced in the previous years.
Good Luck👍

I am UCI alumni too. Your GPA is exceptional. Your DAT score is above average. I do not know some of the schools u will apply. If I were you, I do not I apply UW, SUSB, UNC, and ASDOH (if you do not have 100 hours volunteering). By the way I applied UNC and UW (I will probably get flat rejection too- since my gf loves North Caroline (she has some relatives in there) and one of my best friend lives in Seatle). The other schools look OK to me to apply! Good luck with the rest of the process!

Social chair of Alpha Epsilon Delta (pre-health honors fraternity),

AED is not a fraternity, it is a pre-health honor society. 😀

I am an officer of the organisation as well, and my jaw clenched when i saw "fraternity" next to AED.

you probably won't get into stony brook either. they prefer instate and the class size is tiny.

but don't let me stop you from applying there.
