Hey Guys,
I have been out of the loop of SDN for a while, cuz I actually thought I was going to get in this year, but I guess not. Im on one waitlist and was rejected by all others. I am not discouraged, actually I am even more dedicated to getting into dental school because this is what I want to do with my life.
My stats:
AA19
TS20 (B20,C19, OC19)
PA19
RC22
QR16
GPA: 3.04
BCP:3.16
SC: 3.05
I know its my GPA that sucks. I am enrolled as a post bac student at my local university so that I can take upper division sciences in the fall. I am also planning on retaking the DAT late june. I am going to apply early this time (last time my app was complete in NOV due to my retaking the DAT b/c of a technical issue). I have plently of extra currics, and have been a dental assistant volunteer 2.5+yrs. Do I even have a chance this cycle if I reapply or am I wasting my $$? My concern is that schools wont have my grades until Dec. I am hoping to improve my DAT, but after reading about the horror stories about the test being harder and the no paper rule I am getting a little concerned. I truly value all SDN member's advice/info bc who better to ask than my peers? Any help/advice is much appreciated.
