Hope to here from you guys! Any advice will be welcomed🙂 Thank you a lot in advance!!!
 
You look fine! With those stats you should get a few interviews, no problem. So long as your LORs are good and your essays are good.

will having a science publication in a journal be a smoother ticket to acceptance at UCLA? with 21,22,23 AA TS PAT and >3.8 GPA?

does dental school care that much about publication?
 
you'll be good bro. just make sure you apply by the first month (june) and I'm confident you'll get interviews.
