hey guys
... i'm sure the main concerns everyone always has when applying to dental school is their gpa and dat... my concern is the same... but when it comes time for the admissions people to check out our apps., do they actually read the whole app.(essay, exp. etc...) and then decide or do you guys think that they see the gpa and dat scores and simply decide on that.. cause i gotta tell ya, i know some people who have gotten into dental school who had a reeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalyyyyyyyy low gpa, we're talking in the 2.6's and other who had a >3.0 and the 2.6 got in cause her dat was > 18...
i hope they read the whole thing, cause these days, some of the weirdest people come out on top with the scores, but once it comes to their skills... theres not much there... now this is something to think about?
any thoughts?
