Sorry to hear of your situations. Look on the bright side of the situation. You might still get in this year. If not, you can at least know that while you didn't gain admissions you weren't outright rejected from these schools. Heck, I was rejected prior to secondaries by some schools!

Learn from the experience and apply again. Remember, what isn't good enough for one school may be a shoe-in for another school. Don't apply to the same schools unless you feel comfortable doing so. Schools typically won't magically change their minds about your stats from year to year. In other words, a x.xx gpa may always be too low for a certain school.

Is anyone in the same boat???

yeah. and I don't like it. not one bit. If you want some people to commiserate/ be hopeful with, you should check out the official waitlist thread. We're all on there. 🙂
 
just don't give up if dentistry is what you really want to do!
