Once you've registered for the DAT, how soon can you schedule?

So once you're cleared to schedule, how far in advance do you usually have to schedule? For example, if I was studying a lot, and then finally felt ready, could I schedule it for one week later? Or do you have to sign up way sooner? On a similar note, if you have a panic attack a couple days before, can you postpone? Or is there a postpone window that you have to abide by?

I was digging through some FAQs and stuff trying to find this information but I wasn't seeing it. I'm probably blind, but I figured some people on here would know that have already gone through the entire process.

You can schedule whenever you want, just keep in mind that dates will fill up and you may not have your choice of test day the later you schedule. I scheduled mine about 1 month in advance.

You have to reschedule 2 business day prior to test day.
