I applied 5 schools: BU, Tufts, Temple, Nova and UF
I just got my DAT done yesterday: 21TS/20AA/21PAT. My reading is a bit low:17.
I want to apply 2 more schools: Virginia Commonwealth Univ. and Upenn for fun. What do you guys think my chances are for these schools? Specially, as a out-state student, do I have a shot for VCU? Thank you.
 
what's your gpa?

that there is the million dollar question...no one can tell you what kind of shot you have at a school solely based on you DAT scores, especially since schools like Upenn place wayyyyyyyyyyy more emphasis on GPA than DAT
 
I thought I said it in my original post. Obviously, I didn't. My GPA/SGPA is 3.88/3.81, respectively. Thanks you guys.
 
you have an excellent shot at all schools. your UPENN will like your high GPA. UF favors dental experience/connections + interview over stats (that has been my experience).

that 17 RC may hurt you a little, but not enough to retake the exam.

good luck with interviews, jb!🙂
