Polarnut your looking pretty good 🙂
Busupshot83, didn't you start the other stat thread too?

what were you hoping for with this one?

Not hoping for much... just trying to help filter all those threads people post about their *chances* all into one thread. The stats page is for a specific cycle, this isn't. There are many people that are in the middle of their prereqs, or just starting, that post their stats, so why noy have them all together?
If this thread doesn't jump off, oh well. I'll continue to try new ways to help others.
I didn't want to start a new thread for a simple question:
At what point in your pre-dent careers did you guys start to study for the DAT?

2-3 months before exam date.

GPA is a little low, you DAT scores are good, and you have great ECs.
Ok, I'll venture this, just out of frustration that all the schools seem to have mysteriously lost my transcripts - which were sent by AADSAS! Argh! 😡 (sorry, just had to vent)
These are my stats:
gpa: 3.89, science 3.80
AA - 24
PA - 18
QR - 22
RC - 29
Bio - 23
GC - 23
OC - 21
TS - 22
I volunteered at a dental clinic for ~60 hours. Very bad, I know
🙁

i like the idea of keeping all the "help, what are my chances" posts all in one place... really hope this thread takes off.

Whoa, you rock. You are definitely a very competitive applicant.

Assuming you have lost transcripts, then your file would be labeled as "incomplete." Perhaps this is a reason you have yet to obtain an interview. Just a guess...
T zip, when did you apply? you will definitly get some interviews as soon as your file is complete with the schools.
You honestly don;t think your going to get interviews. shisssh I think someone just wanted to get their ego stroked.

i just get this aweful sinking feeling as i anxiously haunt the mailbox, my inbox and my voicemail and day after day, nothing comes... the logical side of me tells me i'm just being overly paranoid, but then i read about how there are so many applicants this year - and that one's chances of getting in after dec 1 drop dramatically - and that there are evil gremlins carefully removing vital application material from my files in various schools - and my heart fails me.
also, i'm not a very patient person, and these bouts of enforced inactivity (well, besides mail-haunting and compulsive email-checking) are enough to drive me to chocolate or excessively long, annoying posts. currently, both 🙂
but i do thank you for the vote of confidence.

I started about four months before the exam, and then turned hardcore the day after my finals and studied for six straight weeks.

Yes, your stats are great, and yes, you'll hear from schools, and yes you'll probably start dental school in the fall. It's only natural to bite your nails and fret over your future when you place yourself and your future before the gauntlet that is applying to dental school. You'll make it! Best of luck 🙂
