Hey guys I am applying this cycle. My cumulative gpa is 3.303 based on my school ranking system (they don't count in my courses abroad nor my summer classes which I took to go abroad orgo1 and 2) Using AMCAS calculator I have 3.39 cumulative and 3.47 bcpm. (not counting this semester which grades aren't out for but it should boost my sciences)
Now I am currently studying for the DAT intensely (reading AP BIO and Kaplan blue book and I will start destroyer, crack dat, topscore as soon as I finish books next week) as I was planning on taking it June 1.
However, after talking to my head of Pre-dental, he said the committee letter will most likely not be done until (hopefully) July (I am going to try to get them to do it sooner regardless). Now since the LOR won't be ready for June 1 anyways should I post pone the DAT maybe a week or two later to get in extra study or get it out of the way regardless?
I currently do not have any shadowing hours but am aiming for about 100 hours this summer. Also, my dentist will have a LOR ready for around June 1.
