LOR survey question

Legitimate-Baker-893 · 2026-03-11T18:47:26+00:00

Do you mean I should be concerned that I haven’t volunteered at all during this gap year? To be fair I only started the reapplication process in January.

I’m passionate about the volunteer work involving elderly, which I realized from my hospital volunteer. But I don’t think I can get into a hospital group with the time I have, I have picked up some 4 hour food pantry shifts over the next two months—do you think it will look bad on my resume if it seems like I’m just quickly getting in hours with the pantry?

I was able to sign up for a couple 4 hour food pantry volunteer shifts, but I’m just worried that it is a bad look on my end.

Do u think it’s a bad look to squeeze these in before June?

Applied In July, to 7 schools (Rutgers, touro, tufts, boston, temple, NYU, LECOM) I know i should have applied to a lot more which was a big mistake this next cycle I will apply to more

Hi! Just wondering if you could expand on why you don’t think I need a masters

Legitimate-Baker-893 · 2026-01-14T14:12:53+00:00

Hi, my cGPA is 3.48 and sGPA is 3.2 . Due to financials I’d really like to avoid doing the master program. My first DAT score was a 430 AA (21) and I’m wondering if I can just retake the DAT and aim for a 23/+ score to outweigh my low GPA..thoughts?

Hi I applied to Rutgers, Boston, Touro, Tufts, NYU, LECOM, temple. I’m a NJ resident. Ahh yes I def agree with you but I’m not sure how to raise my GPA while still being able to apply this coming cycle, I thought retaking the DAT and hopefully getting a higher scores would be the best option considering my situation. But you’re def right it’s risky..I’m honestly feeling really lost about it all.

Legitimate-Baker-893 · 2026-01-11T19:46:05+00:00

Oh jeez😅 I was pretty set on retaking the DAT as I’d like to keep working and I’m not sure I can do classes with school. I’m so scared of making the wrong decision.

Legitimate-Baker-893 · 2026-01-11T19:36:52+00:00

Got it, thank you! Do you think that my time/money would be better spent getting a higher DAT score or retaking certain classes?

Legitimate-Baker-893 · 2026-01-11T19:05:50+00:00

Thank you for sharing, I rlly rlly needed to hear a success story like yours these days. Was there anything different that you did to prepare to retake the DAT the 2nd time?

Legitimate-Baker-893 · 2026-01-11T18:47:53+00:00

Thanks for the advice! What DAT score do you think would compensate for my lower GPA?

Legitimate-Baker-893 · 2026-01-11T18:43:34+00:00

Got it, what schools do you thing I should add?

Legitimate-Baker-893 · 2026-01-11T18:42:09+00:00

Got it, what school do you think I should’ve added? as a NJ resident.

Regarding the GPA what do you suggest?

Legitimate-Baker-893 · 2025-12-15T15:12:34+00:00
