why haven't you applied yet?

Also, why are you applying to these expensive schools? Nobody cares where you went to dental school. And you can get into any specialty from any dental school. You have great numbers -- apply to the cheapest schools and you'll get in and save your future self a ton of headache

You’re gonna need more than 2 letters. Check out the AADSAS app questions page first post (from me) IT should help

I would not be sure about the Ivy Schools. You don't have much research or anything to stand out other than metrics, which are not the only criteria. I would have suggested U of P but not the other UC dental schools unless you absolutely wanted to go there and assume the high COA, especially USC. I don't get the OHSU or UMD programs on your list... missing mission fit.

You need to read the LOR requirements.
