I am considering applying to dental schools sometime in September and am wondering if I should actually plan on waiting another year to apply.
*I have a 3.61 cGPA / 3.26 sGPA
*I have no volunteering hours and no shadowing experience.
*I still need to take the DAT and have not yet started studying for it.
My super-cram-plan was to rack up volunteering and shadowing hours between the end of spring semester and summer school, and between the end of summer school and fall semester. I'm working ahead of schedule in my studies at school to free up my schedule so I can study for the DAT, but have thus far not put in any time.
Is it possible to become a competitive candidate between now and September, or is it much more realistic that I plan on waiting until June-July of 2013 to apply?
This information may be important: I finish my BBS in Business Management and Finance in the summer of 2013, and will have completed all of my pre-requisites in the Spring of 2013. I can retake general chemistry I in the Fall of 2013 and really improve my sGPA (with current grades, it'll change my sGPA from 3.26 -> 3.5)
