Where on predents.com does it tell you where to apply?
By the way, I'm planning on getting 19-21 on DAT.

If you expect about 20 on DAT, I suggest you to apply to all 6 in California + a few private schools (Case, Nova, NYU, BU, Tufts, Temple) in other states. 10~15 sounds reasonable.

How do you do 25 hours of research? It's likely that you pop into a dental clinic for a week or so and get 80 hours, but how do you go into a lab for 25 hours only? 😕

I guess you can do 1hr a week and do it for 6 months. 😱

Ya, as far as my research it was just for a motor learning class I was a part of. So I was doing like 4 hours per week for a couple of weeks. It wasn't anything really special.
