FYI, MCATs and DATs are graded on a different scale.
to answer your question, I believe the DAT is curved to a mean score of 17~18. To have a legit shot of getting into dental schools, aim for at least a 19 or 20.

doesnt matter what the national avg is... its prob 17... The avg of those accepted is probably close to 19 given recent years. This year, the avg accepted has to be atleast 19.
