Hello all,

A little while ago, I was advised to apply broadly if I choose to risk applying at all. So, I am wondering if it's worth adding more programs to the list, despite the subpar sGPA. Is fourteen adequate? Thank you for your time.

sGPA: 3.10
cGPA: 3.45
DAT: 21AA, 22TS, 21PAT, 18RC, 23QR
Shadowing Hours: ~ 300 hours
Volunteering Hours: ~ 250 hours
Letters of Recommendation: 3

List:
1. Loma Linda
2. Western University
3. University of the Pacific
4. University of Southern California
5. New York University
6. Tufts University

I think with your lower GPA, good DAT, and volunteering hours you'd be in a good position to get an interview at UNE.
