If you look at Doc Toothaches data gathered from ADA, you will find that for US Dental Schools the average order of importance on the DAT is:

AA (1.17) > TS (1.20) > RC (1.35) > BIO (1.39) > OC (1.46) > GC (1.5) > PAT (1.65) > QR (2.26)

In addition, if factor in the "other factors" you will find that in general US Dental Schools value the following in this order:

Interview (1.07) > SCI GPA (1.09) > AA (1.17) > Overall GPA (1.19) > TS (1.20) > RC (1.35) > BIO (1.39) > OC (1.46) > GC (1.5) > LOR (1.63) > PAT (1.65) > Man Dext (1.90) > Non Sci GPA (2.02) > QR (2.26)

I wish PAT was ranked higher, I eat those for breakfast.
