dat

Currently in a gap year with very limited clinical experience (pre-med before this with around 25 hours shadowing a specialist). I was wondering how I should spend the next six months left before the application opens. I have two timelines in mind: 1. Shadow for 2 months (feb/march) and build...

I recently took the Canadian DAT in November and got these scores. Reading comp: 20 BIOL: 18 Chem: 17 Sci Total: 18 Academic Average: 18 PAT: 14 MDT: 6 This was my first time taking the DAT, and I went into it with zero preparation, based off these scores alone do you think there is any chance...

Hello all! So from what I understand, the basic process is: obtain DENTPIN; apply for DAT and get approval; then actually schedule DAT date and choose colleges to send scores to. I plan to take my DAT Feb 2018, and applications open June 2018. So what I want to make sure is it is still...

I took my DAT in January 2017 and recently (12/01/17) was accepted into dental school. These are the materials I used to prepare for the exam and I highly recommend this study package to anyone who really wants to pass the DAT exam with high scores. Selling bundle for $250(USD). This bundle...

Hey did anybody hear any good news, either interviews or acceptances with a DAT of a 21, 3.3 oGPA and a 3.1ish science GPA? I’m applying in June !

I was particularly confused with this question due to the fact that the answer I got when solving the problem was not one of the available choices. Why, after finding that the number of total Al2O3 atoms is ~6.02*10^21, do we multiply that number by 3 to get the number of O atoms in the...

Hello everyone, I've been lurking for quite some time now and decided I needed some advice and peace of mind on my ideas for the DAT prep, since I've already seen some amazing support system on other posts! I currently have a 4.0 GPA (including Chem 1&2, Ochem 1&2, Bio 1&2, Biochem, Anatomy &...

It seems like on here that schools only look at sGPA..? EYE was curious if schools look at oGPA as well? EYE have a 3.39 oGPA and a 3.04sGPA, with great LORs, plenty of shadowing and volunteeering hours.. 150+ for each, and a 22 DAT. I’m applying to 15-20 schools but am feeling doubtful. This...

I just took my DAT today and did better than I was anticipating with a 21AA. I wanted to make a brief post to encourage people who are still studying and still feeling like they're not hitting the scores that they want to get on the actual test. Obviously this is just my experience, but I...

Hey guys, so I took my DAT a few months ago for the 2nd time and got a 16AA, which was worse than the 1st time I took it which was a 17AA. I took it after submitting my app and got an interview for my in state school. Everything went great but I just got a call today that the admissions...

Hi all, I was wondering what my chances at dental schools in NYC are and any comments will be appreciated. Please be straightforward. So I messed up early in UG due to numerous problems. I finally decided to pursue dentistry in my final year and that's when I changed my major from chemistry...

3.45 oGPA, and 3.1 science. Im only asking for schools that do accept with lower GPA but a 22 DAT. EYE have multiple clubs/ leadership positions and 200+ hours volunteering and 150+ hour shadowing, for 3 different dentists! EYE live in Ohio, so EYE was curious for the out of state schools that...

Hello everyone! I took my DAT in August and I'm currently in the interview process for dental school this year and debating whether I should retake it. I have applied to 14 dental schools and have gotten 5 interview invitations. At some interviews I have been asked "Do you plan to retake the...

So when I selected schools for my DAT scores when registering for the DAT, I selected every school on the list. After reviewing which schools had my scores, only the east and west dental schools had them. I am from the midwest and none of my top choices have my DAT scores. What happened? Is...

Seems like most of the test-takers here are very US-centric. Was wondering if anyone around here took the cDAT on November 4. Thoughts on it?

Hello, I am hoping to hear back some input on my current situation. DAT: PA:22/QR:18/RC:20/Bio:20/GC:18/OC:13/TS:17/AA:18 I graduated from a 2 year college first with a GPA around 3.5, then transferred to a university to get my bachelors with a 3.92 GPA and 3.77 Science. I took a gap year in...

hello everyone. What would you recommend for someone who is very weak in chemistry. I know Chads is great, but im speaking even more elementary. For example how to break up NaCl-->Na+ + Cl- , and balancing Reactions, and maybe even the nomenclature like how to name nitrATE vs nitrITE and...

Hello, I was wondering if its still okay to apply to dental school now? I am taking my DAT in a few weeks hopefully. I have already completed a good portion of application, I already have my LOR and transcript in, i did not click submit yet. Feeling nervous about it being the end of september.

Hi everyone, I was just wondering how early I should sign up for the DAT if I want to take it in early 2018 (between January and March?). I want to have my scores available early enough so that way I can apply for the 2019 cycle when the application pool opens on June 1st of next year. If you...
