    When is it a "reach" school based on your GPA and DAT?

    Say you have a 3.55 GPA and 23 AA DAT -- is it >= 3.6 for GPA? >= 3.7? etc. What about DAT scores? I know, splitting hairs here LOL and there are certainly all the other aspects of a candidate since it's a holistic picture of you. I'm just trying to filter the final list for this cycle. TIA!
