The thing that some people dont understand is that yes grades do correlate to how well you would do in dental school and on the national boards, but they dont tell you how well you will do as a dentist. Yes all of the schools would like to have students with a high gpa and DAT to boost their stats but they know that those people dont always make good dentists. Otherwise they have plenty of people with 3.7 and above and 20 and above DATs. It might will make it easier to get in with these stats, but they sure do look at what kind of EC you have and your experience. Some schools do look at stats first and cut out everyone else, but there are plenty of schools who actually put your secondary application fee to use and review your whole application.
I know a couple of people who have gotten in with low scores, but they had extensive EC and have shown their dedication to dentistry and leadership in many ways.
Oracle was just trying to expand on the fact that scores aren't the only thing that matters. And obviously he had no connections to the school, its in its first year!
LMAO at all you people with little man syndrome stop talkin trash!
I hope Oracle is my dentist some day because he obviously is in dentistry for the right reasons.
ps: YA DIGG?!
