New Jersey Resident going to school in upstate NY.
Major: Biology
Overall GPA: 3.44
Science GPA: 3.45
Expected DAT: TS 19/ AA 19/ PAT 22
300 hours of dental assisting
good LOR's (3 from professors and 1 from dentist)
average E.C.'s

I am applying to UMDNJ, NYU, Tufts, Boston, Buffalo, Columbia, Temple, USC, washington, Upenn next year.
Do I have any shot at these schools?
Reach? Match? safety?
Thanks!
 
honestly as an out-of-stater, you have NO chance at UW
also Columbia and UPenn are a stretch with an average gpa and DAT, no offense
 
Yeah its pretty important to know what your dat will be, especially for columbia and upenn
 
okay..
But what about the other schools?
I just want to know if I am able to make it.
what would be my matching schools??
 
Probably good for UMDNJ

When are you taking the DAT?
When are you applying or have you submitted yet?
 
Take the DAT then come back to us.
 
im taking it in the end of next june.
I just did a practice exam and I got 18/18/19.
what about Tufts? I really want to get into Tufts. one of my top choices.
Would I be able to get in with my GPA and 19/19/22 DAT score?

U still got a year to go.. so your GPA isn't set yet. It's hard to tell with the 1 year uncertainty. U're on a good track tho. Study hard on the DAT and you should have a good shot. Nothing is guaranteed. We can't ensure you that you'll get in... good shot is all I can say. Tufts, NYU, BU, UMDNJ 👍
