how did you come up with this list?

 

[Mr.Smile12]

You lost me at Utah, Roseman, and Colorado. Meharry is an HBCU program. Where did you grow up in Ohio? Where did you attend predental day (Kentucky?)?

how did you come up with this list?

from the outline and school list by tuition, location, price, pre rec, etc

you get interview invites and acceptances because of mission fit with schools
all those things you listed are not mission fit

plus meharry is an HBCU

also, schools can be kinda regional in who they reach out to, so this is why m.smiles was wondering about colorado utah and roseman...

i looked at each school's mission and have the same ideals. i was making the list based off of simple things

U of I like Illinois or Iowa?

ok, got it
you have 8 schools, which is likely too few for your stats
plus you have geographical issues with 3 schools and an HBCU
in addition, 5 publics is too many relative to your school list...

according to booster colorado and the two in utah have about a 50% OOS acceptance and the HBCU school does not say that they require someone to be of a certian ethancy to be considered, just knowing the history of the school is important to consider when choosing. i have heard people say not to apply to schools you do not see yourself at. i have a friend from ky who is applying to schools across the country too. idk maybe i wont get in but isnt it better to shoot your shot then not trying at all?

it's better to shoot your shot at a broad, well selected list
you need to have a couple reaches, mostly in-range schools, and a few safeties
while your stats are around the average applicant, they are below the average matriculant (3.6/21), so 8 schools is probably not enough
not trying to bring you down, just giving you an honest assessment of your chances...
