Hi everyone, I took DAT before, and I did not do so well. So, I have no other choice but to retake it again. My exam date is on the last date of my registration eligibility, and I already extended once. However, I still feel like I am not ready to retake it, and I think it is best to postpone...

So I'm kind of in a big predicament right now. I just got accepted to VCU's Summer Academic Enrichment Program (SAEP) last week and it's from May 22 to June 29th. It's basically a 6 week program where I take 3 dental school level classes (anatomy, pharmacology, and physiology) in VCU. I already...

Hi! So I'm retaking my DAT on July 12th and I'm submitting my apps next week! I've indicated I'm retaking the test on my application, but does this mean that when I send my apps in before my July scores come in, schools will look at my previous DAT score and judge me based off of that?
