So the dental school application opens tomorrow and I wanted some outside advice on a list of schools I have put together (whether I should add or remove some, which ones are more realistic, etc). Keep in mind that I am an NJ resident.

BU
Tufts
Rutgers
Penn
Temple
Pitt
Columbia
Maryland
Michigan
VCU

Realistically I would like to slim this list down to 7-8 schools.

DAT: 22 AA 23 PAT 21 TS
GPA: science- 4.0 (using the adea scale that incorporates A+ as 4.3)
Non science 3.95

Plenty of shadowing/dental assisting hours over the past few years as well as some dental volunteer work.

Decent leadership involvement and club activity.

Let me know what you guys think
