Hey Pre-dents! So, I just left the dark side (pre-med) and decided recently to do Dent, for many reasons, mostly that I don't like the idea of no sleep, residency hell, and no social life! So here I am!
I'm a junior, looking to apply this June, but am waiting to take the DAT.
Question:
With a not so heavy load this semester, should Feb-April DAT studying (like 2 hours a day) be good enough to get a 20+?
Question:
Say I get an interview at my top choice: Maryland...but I will be studying abroad from August-December. So if I need to reschedule it, will this look bad on my part? Will I lose a chance at getting a seat?
I want to study abroad, but I don't want that to affect my chances at acceptance.
STATS: Jr, overall GPA/science GPA (about the same) 3.75, many leadership ECs, great letters of Rec, research, but no shadowing in Dentistry (yet)!
THANKS!
