I was wondering if i could get some advice on my situation. Im a 5th year predental student, getting ready to apply to dental school this cycle , looking to graduate spring 2021, and im feeling burnt out. I originally had 13 schools on my list to apply to but now im reconsidering. First, because if i do get accepted i would have to take 5 classes for the spring after taking 5 right now for my fall semester, then i would start dental school in June or July which barely gives me time to relax and recover. I also dont really want to go anywhere else but DCG because its instate and alot cheaper than any other dental school. However i have a really good relationship with a dentist that is a graduate of Detroit mercy and is in contact with admissions to put my name out there at the school. I have also built relationships with admissions at the university of Pittsburg school of dental medicine. So im stuck because i really may get accepted to one of these schools and i dont want to pass up on the opportunity, but at the same time i feel that i may be burnt out and i also really want to go to DCG which will probably not happen this cycle since most dental students that i met at DCG had to apply twice. So i would most likely be accepted my self as a reapplicant. Should i just apply to DCG only, or should i also apply to PItt and Detroit as well. Either way next cycle i would apply to 13 - 15 schools. But If i do apply to DCG this cycle i will likely not get in and will have a year off and if i apply to the other two as well i may get in so i dont know what i should do.
