I think it's too late at this point (once it's been uploaded to aadsas). Nevertheless, it's probably a good thing, I mean, if the dental schools found out you took the american DAT and noticed that it was curiously absent from aadsas...well, witholding that kind of information would probably be frowned upon and end up doing more harm in the end. Just my opinion.

While at it, ask them to toss out all the grades you didn't like.

As a Canadian applicant I know what you mean - which scores will they look at? You should contact the schools individually and ask them how they will address this. They might be willing to take the best scores, as some schools do that anyway for people who have taken the US DAT multiple times.

the marks got uploaded themself. i didn't even touch them. i think i will call individual schools. since i will be sending my canadian scores individually to each school.

obviously your aDAT scores get updated automatically. Did you not register with AADSAS with your DENTPIN?
