School List Help

[gosaveteeth]

Hello!
As application rolls on I would love to have some feedbacks on my school list.

A little of my background: Dental Hygiene BS
Location: California
science GPA: 3.59
cumulative GPA: 3.67
DAT: 21AA, 21TS, 19PAT (none below 17)
worked as a hygienist for about 2 years now


my school list:
ASDOH
USC
LLU
UCLA
UCSF
UOP
WESTU
LECOM
NOVA
BU
Tufts
UNLV
Texas A&M University Baylor College of Dentistry
University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio Dental School (SAN)
University of Washington School of Dentistry (WASH)

I was hoping to make the list a little shorter as I am saving funds for later,
but still want the list to cover enough schools to be safe..
Thanks a lot for the help!

I think that you'll be okay with getting rid of the last three. Texas schools and Washington are very OOS unfriendly, and it doesn't make much sense applying to them. You look like you're in good shape with the other schools, which is still a good amount. You have a mix of private schools in there and I think you'll definitely get some interviews from those schools you have listed. Good luck!

Got it. Thank you so much!
