Hi! Its my first post here and I was wondering if you could provide me with some answers that could help me. Note: I'm a freshman at undergrad so I am looking to get some tips to plan my undergrad out.
First, I was wondering where you go to undergrad would matter and how much it factors into the admissions process.
Second, I am wondering if it matters whether or not I do extra curriculars during the school year. I am active during the summer (with research and a job at a practice) but I dont know if it will hurt in any way if I dont take extra curriculars during the school year because I want to concentrate on my academics. I do go to volunteer every saturdays if that helps. I was also considering joining pre-dental club and was wondering what benefits this club brings to most universities.
Third, I want to know if dental schools look at overall or science gpa more.
Fourth, I was wondering when I should think about taking the DAT
That is all, for now. I would like to thank everyone that answers my questions, or attempts to!
