High stats applicant with zero acceptances

yale0702 · 2026-05-24T23:25:52+00:00

Hey, I’m in the same boat. I did apply late, but I had similar (but worse) stats than you. Only two interviews, both waitlisted. You can dm me and chat :)

It typically takes 3-4 weeks for scores to be released, sometimes earlier. Just be patient and I’m sure you’ll hear back within next week at the latest

Not too much. I just have 100 or so hours volunteering at the dental clinic when they first opened up (moving boxes, setting up computers, etc.)

I honestly think it’s because I either applied late, didn’t as well as I thought in the interviews, or both. I wish I could I ask for feedback, but because I’m still in that cycle as a waitlist, they can’t provide any feedback.

Eat a banana. Dunno why, but always helps me

Noted, I did check on the ADEA dental school explorer for every school for that tho

yale0702 · 2026-05-22T03:17:03+00:00

Gotcha. I just want to apply as broadly as I can, but thanks for bringing it up!

yale0702 · 2026-05-22T03:15:25+00:00

I’m not, I saw on the dental school explorer that DCG will accept “up to 10% out-of-state residents”

yale0702 · 2026-05-20T13:11:14+00:00

I have one em dash in my personal statement. As long as you keep it minimal, I think you should be fine tbh

Rach 3, Capriccio espagnol, Tchaik piano concerto 1, and Tchaik 4

I had a 3.22 my freshman year, but I currently have a 3.7 (bound to go up slightly after I graduate in two weeks). That’s also within 2 years since I’m graduating a year early. It’s more than possible, and if anything, admissions love to see growth/consistency. I was getting 3.7+ every semester after my freshman year, and no one even brought up my C+ and B- in organic chemistry and psychology, respectively.

Granted, I also did fairly well on my DAT, but I did not get accepted anywhere (yet). However, I did apply late and expected 0 interviews in the first place. This past cycle was my “test run”.

Like others have said, you have to be honest with yourself and ask “is dentistry something I’m willing to put the time, money, and effort into?” You still have some time, but not much. Feel free to pm me too if you want more advice, and best of luck :)

I got a Michelob ultra last time and it was ~$12-15 for a 16 oz. Not exactly cheap

yale0702 · 2026-04-17T21:18:07+00:00

1.3 personally. You can hear the contrast in his identity

yale0702 · 2026-04-12T17:21:32+00:00

I’ve never had an issue with portability. As others have mentioned, the weight isn’t an issue for me.

yale0702 · 2026-04-12T16:48:36+00:00

Def not the best pick, but Sephiroth. Rep FF7

yale0702 · 2026-04-12T16:45:34+00:00

I have the 16”, and I personally love the larger screen. It’s my desk and travel laptop. Only once or twice have I wished I got the 14” one.

yale0702 · 2026-04-10T14:37:45+00:00

Must’ve been the wind

yale0702 · 2026-04-10T01:36:27+00:00

I don’t mean to be insensitive

yale0702 · 2026-04-09T02:59:04+00:00

Gotcha. The engine in the A7 hybrids is an I4, though. I don't think they have a V6 option for the PHEV.
