Hi Guys,

I'm planning on applying for dental school in a week...just putting finishing touchs on the personal statement.

But, I have a major weakness in my application: LACK OF SHADOWING. So, I'm getting really worried about spending a thousand dollar to get rejected at the end. (Plus, I'm late.)

I have a 3.78 GPA, my science is higher, my DAT scores are AA: 19 TS: 20 PA 20. My community service hours are around 400. I've worked non-stop throught out college, w/ an 18 credit load most semesters.

But, I lack shadowing. Do I have a shot? Or is shadowing really important. What should I do? Where should I apply?

Thanks for your advice in advance.
