Hey guys,
So I'm kinda freaking out. I submitted my app beginning of june and took my dat july 2. My gpa is 3.4 cum 3.3 sci and my dat is 23/22/22 AA/TS/PAT. I've applied to OSU, Case (ohio resident), UK, Louisville, UofI, Pitt, UPenn, NYU, USC, UB, VCU, UConn, ASDOH, Nova, Midwestern, Tufts, and Temple. What are my chances if any at all?? I would really like NYU, Pitt, Penn, or OSU but realistically where do I stand?

Your GPA is a
little low, but you should be ok.
 
Same boat I'm in, but I haven't taken the DAT yet. You have great chances (especially with your early submission). Don't let people on here scare you with their stats. You'll get an interview somewhere (maybe 2-3), so just make sure you make it very clear, the reasons for which you wish to become a dentist. Stats can only take you so far, the rest is sheer love of the field. Best of luck to you!
 
If at all?? I think realistically your chances of getting in somewhere are pretty good. I have similar DAT scores and a much lower GPA, but I've decided to go through with it anyway. Just keep your head up and you'll be fine.👍

P.S. I don't really like these threads but I ask myself this same chances question every day, but we never know until we try! It's all about confidence, and maybe a little luck!!
 
yeah i'm hoping for the best right now. Could my DAT or personal statement make up for my sorry gpa at all?
