Depends on which schools. If you have a 3.2, you have a great chance of getting into USC’s dental school, but if you apply with a 3.2 to Harvard dental, don’t expect even an interview. I believe the average for top dental schools are 3.65+, 3.8 for Harvard.

As for med schools, I have buddies who got into osteopathic DO and carribean MD schools with 2.7-3.0. US MD schools are usually around the 3.6-3.7 mark. 3.8 for top schools.

I’m assuming you have a 3.3. You have a good chance of getting into dental schools like Meharry, Howard, USC, etc. And a darn good chance of a DO. I don’t recommend getting a carribean MD.
