I have a very strong overall application with leadership, 400+ shadowing, 400+ volunteering, etc and have had a pretty tough background to get here- My overall GPA is 3.61 and science 3.50, I honestly can't believe I got to this point since I never had a science background in English prior to moving to the U.S. However, I took my DAT twice and got 18AA's both times, but my TS went from 18 --> 19, and I had no sections under 17 the second time around.
My top choices are VCU and UNE (just because what I'm looking for in a school (service-oriented) is what their main focuses are). But, Im OOS for both.
I applied to 15 schools (some of which include Tufts, BU, Temple, LECOM, NOVA, Marquette, Touro, Midwestern-Illinois..)
Do I have a shot or should I retake the DAT? My mental health is honestly saying no, and that it is just the score Im meant to get, to get to the school Im meant to be at. I'd be grateful for any dental school offering me a position really, but I'm just terrified none will just because of my score. Any advice would be so appreciated.. Thank you!
My app has been complete and verified since June, and Im just waiting on my committee letter which will hopefully be in by July 31/Beginning of August!
