Date of submission: I'm not applying until next cycle, but I'm just trying to get an idea of where I can approve my application.
Overall GPA: 3.73
Science GPA: 3.60
Bio-Chem-Physics GPA: 3.57 (I haven't taken physics yet)
DAT score (include AA and all sections): 19 AA, 19 TS, GC 20, OC 22, BIO 17, RC 20, QR 17, PAT 22
State of Residence: Michigan
Undergrad Attended: Ferris State University
Major: Biology
Minority? Yes
Reapplicant? No
Nontrad? No
Shadowing Experience: 36 hours as of now with two general dentists (adding to that this school year)
Volunteering Experience: Around 100 hours between an animal shelter, a women's shelter, a food pantry and the honor's program at my university. I really want to increase this number this year as much as I can, COVID-permitting.
Employment: I've had 2 jobs every summer since undergrad has started. I was offered employment with the same dentist that I shadowed with and I just finished up my second summer there doing sterilization, setting up/cleaning rooms, and helping at the front desk (about 650 hours of work there in total). I'm currently in my 3rd year at a golf course as a bartender/beverage cart girl, and I have worked during the school year at my school's recreation center, the golf course on the weekends during the fall/spring, and at the dentist office during my school breaks.
Research: 1 semester research in organic chemistry
LOR type and strength: Strong letters from 2 possible dentists that I worked with at the practice I shadowed/worked at for two years who I feel like I have formed strong relationships with (both UDM alums). A semi-strong letter from my advisor who I will also be having classes with all year (microbiology and immunology). Another strong letter from a professor I will have had 3 semesters plus labs with while also receiving good grades in the two courses I have taken with her (A&P and pathophysiology).
School list: UDM, UMich, Case Western, Louisville, Marquette, UNE, Tufts, WVU, Creighton, Nova, Pitt
Let me know if there are any other schools I should be applying to!
