I know a lot of people have asked this but I'm really nervous on my chances for this coming cycle.
My sGPA = 3.45
oGPA = 3.4
BCP = 3.55
Dat scores = AA - 20
TS - 21
PAT - 23
(only thing that killed my AA was an 18 on QR rest of the sections were 20+)
Ill have 150 hours of volunteering, 100 hours of shadowing, and no research time. Everything else should be good also i.e. LOR's, Personal statement, etc. Will I be able to get into a school somewhere in the West? Me and my wife were hoping to stay near our families (both from Utah) because we are planning to have a child soon and we don't want to have to fly or drive long hours. Any information would be great thanks!

Are those your only preconditions?
 
Decent GPA and good DAT. I got an 18 on the QR section too. That section is least important in the test. I would say you probably have a good chance. I'm not up to date on the averages of the schools in that area though. But for dental school as a whole you're not it bad shape.
