Your GPA is excellent, ECs look good, definitely get the shadowing and volunteering up though. And it'll be hard to say anything else without a DAT score. I would also add your state schools to your list if they're not already on there.

With that GPA, unless his school is absolute crap, a 21 DAT should be pretty easy to land.

Everything looks good in terms of stats and EC's. If you end up shooting for the numbers you put for volunteering and shadowing. I would even encourage some more if you could but it isn't absolutely necessary. I didn't apply to any of those schools that you listed but with your stats you should be fine. As a reference, I am a CA resident, with a 3.7 GPA, 21 AA/PAT, combined over 1000 hours of shadowing and volunteering, applied to 5 schools (UCLA, UOP, WesternU, UNLV, and USC). I got interviews at 3 schools and accepted at all 3 as well.

honestly a 19 is pretty different from a 21. Especially with 2 big sections (reading+bio) being 18 or less. Not trying to discourage the OP, but I would say your case is pretty different from his.

I am confused. Where did it say anything about a 19 or an 18 from the OP?

oh what the I think I confused this post with someone else's who had a 17 bio and a 18 RC.

Chancing you without your DAT score is like trying to get a loan without your credit history. The DAT score determines everything so come back once you have taken it.
