Should I add more schools to the list?

This is the second time I'm applying to dental school and had two pre-Dec interview, five rejections, one waitlist, and 8 under review. I'm considering adding one more school to my list, USC, because the deadline is not until Feb and their website states that they finalize their class in May. Is it too late to add more schools? Check out my stats on Predents, what are my chances? Any opinions?

Your dat scores are compromising your chances. unless you plan on retaking your dat no later than mid-end of January, I'd say there is no need to add any more schools.
good luck!🙂

the problem is you waited too long to add additional schools to be seriously considered. even though the schools have deadlines that haven't passed, it is not likely that they will pay much attention to your application as they would have interviewed more than enough candidates to fill their classes. it would be better to prepare for the next cycle rather than try to add additional schools.
