What are your general comments?

Let me start out first by letting you guys know that the average DAT scores and GPA are 18 and 3.25. To have a sure shot at this school, you must have at least 19 average on the DAT PERIOD. I think the tour guide (Brian) is a great guy. His job is to sell the school, and he does it with a passion....If you are offered an interview, don't get stressed out too much because your GPA and DAT score have more weight than the interview. The admission process goes like this: First, the admission comittee goes through your file and decides if you're accepted or not. If not, your file will be reviewed again and this time your interviewer's feedback will be put in play. Thus, if you have high GPA and DAT score. I don't think the interview is important at all.....good luck, guys.
