<p>I am thinking about going into dentistry or medicine(preferably dentistry)</p>

<p>I am applying to 1 7 year dental programs and 7 other colleges as a bio major
Schools:
Syracuse University
University of Maryland College Park
Northeastern University
Geneseo (SUNY) - 7 year dental program (ok i meet requirements SAT 1200 and 90 hs average- i have both)
Villanova University (requirements (for 7 year dental program) said SAT of 1320 minimum or ACT 30 minimum "ouch")
Lehigh University (requirements (for 7 year dental program) said SAT of 1270; i have 1260.........)
University of Rochester
Boston College (i know its a reach school)</p>

<p>Which colleges are reachs, matchs or safety schools for me?</p>

2

<p>None of those schools are safeties.</p>

3

<p>ok thanks but does that mean they are all matchs for me?</p>

4

<p>not at all...</p>

5

<p>Just doing it by memory from avg SAT scores of the schools and the type of people who get in </p>

<p>Syracuse University - match
University of Maryland College Park - match
Northeastern University - match
Lehigh University (requirements (for 7 year dental program) said SAT of 1270; i have 1260.........) - reach
University of Rochester - reach
Boston College (i know its a reach school) - you couldn't be more right </p>

<p>I don't know enough about the Geneseo and Villanova 7-year dental programs. I would guess both are reaches because you barely meet the minimum requirements and combined programs are known to be competitive.</p>

<p>Your scores should be above the scores of 75% of the student body at a school in order for you to consider it a safety.</p>

6

<p>i see thanks, and anyway is it good to have a safety or 2 or is this list ok?</p>

7

<p>bump anyone?</p>

8

<p>you should have at least one safety so that you know that you'll at least get in somewhere.</p>

9

<p>i see ok thanks but i have no idea what other schools i can apply to plus i am already applying to 8 schools</p>

10

<p>Syracuse is close to a safety, I think. But I'm not really familiar with your other schools, other than by reputation.</p>

11

<p>ok thx so i kind of have one safety</p>

12

<p>bump please anyone else?</p>

13

<p>bump any chances please!?</p>
