I haven't posted anything in the DAT discussions but it has definitely been a great resource, so thanks to all who do a great job contributing.

My second time taking the DAT and here are my scores (PIANO)
PAT: 24 99.0%
QR: 14 25.8%👎
RC: 20 72.4%
BIO: 22 95.7%
Gen Chem: 19 73.0%
O Chem: 21 87.6%
TS: 21 92.4%
AA: 19 77.2%

First time (07/15/08) scores were:
PAT: 18
QR: 17
RC: 17
BIO: 19
Gen Chem: 20
O Chem: 25
TS: 20
AA: 20

I'm content with my new scores except for QR, i ran out of time and 10 questions were blank, i now know that fatigue played a big role on slowing my pace in the QR section.

I'm debating whether or not to retake and would appreciate any advise!
Thanks!

I wouldnt re-take if I were you, your scores are stellar except for QR. That QR might keep you out of some interviews and schools but your other scores may overshadow your low QR score. I think you are in good shape. Good Luck!

It's tough to say with your scores bcs. they aren't bad. I think it depends on were you are applying and you're EC's. Did you get any interviews last time with your scores? and if so what kind of feedback did they give you?
