Re applicant last cycle DAT was: 20AA 18TS 18PAT 17BIO 21chem 18Orgo 19RC 23QR
Note: I realize my AA was lower and that will definitely be looked on negatively but am hoping I improved in some important sections (bio TS and PAT) as opposed to the big drop in QR

Notes:
Main things that changed between this cycle and last were new DAT score, more shadowing hours, new volunteer opportunity at homeless shelter where I tried to combine passions for oral health and serving underserved community

School list:


BU
touro
LECOM
rutgers (called and they said reason for denial last year was low bio and TS score)
Maryland
debating tufts- I know given my average stats it would be a smart bet but tuition is very high
Buffalo
I know I need to apply to many more but would really like to stay in the northeast... any suggestions?

have you volunteered/shadowed/attended events at rutgers d school?
 
I have not unfortunately, I work in Boston full-time so it is difficult for me to get back. I signed a two year contract two years ago and am planning to move back this year. Do you have any idea where they list these events? I can't seem to find them on their website.
