Hey everyone, first off want to thank you all for this website, it was a great resource while I studied this summer. Just wanted to share my scores and get some opinions. I have about a 3.1 oGPA and 3.0 sGPA and entering my senior year, taking biochem right now, going to be taking genetics etc next semester as well.

I cannot thank Chads videos enough by the way. AMAZING.

my scores are as follows:

PAT:21
QR:20
RC:20
Bio: 20
GC: 22
OC: 21
TS:21
AA:21

I know these aren't bad scores but I just wanted to get some opinions because a friend wants to purchase my notes and I wanted to make sure I wouldn't need them anymore. A friend of mine took the test the day after and got a 25 TS and 23AA. Made me rethink my scores lol.

What do you guys think? I have somewhat strong ECs as well.
 
you can probably get a couple of interviews even without the masters.

great job, those are solid scores! If you think you can do better, go ahead and try to take it again, theres not really much room for improvement once your passed a 20.
 
I agree with @SunshineStatePreDental on all points.

You have great scores. Once you get 20+, I think it's harder to increase your DAT score dramatically. I'm also pretty sure you could get a few interviews with your stats.
 
Don't retake!!!! you have great scores!! just do well in you science classes this year and you'll be fine!!
 
Screw that man, your DAT is fine. If your ECs are fine and you're applying next cycle you have a chance to bring up your GPA.
 
You have nice scores. What materials did you use to study? As for GPA, I doubt DAT will help that much, you might want to take some extra classes or do a master's to increase your GPA.
