What's your residency? UF isn't very OOS friendly

Why 2 reach schools? Do you want to go to those schools? Do you like research? I think the mentality of "reach" schools is more of an undergrad thing. I would find 2 more match schools because your goal is to get into dental school. I'm assuming you are a CA resident, if not, you have to rework your list.

You have 6 reach schools out of 14 now. What criteria did you use to pick those schools?

Sorry i had posted an old list, just edited it...didn't realize cali schools weren't OOS friendly

Just wondering, is chicago also OOS unfriendly? Sorry this is all new to me. Any advice would be very helpful!

Apply to as many reach schools as you'd like to! You'll never know if you never try and if you are really interested in a particular "reach" school, it's worth a shot if you can afford to spend a bit more money. If you have a decent research background you may be able to get into a school like Harvard/Columbia! Good luck!
