I am a reapplicant. I'm planning to retake the dats again in July. However, i will submit my AADSAS application sometimes next week. Is it okay not to include my old DAT scores on my application and just indicate that you're going to take in July. The reason being is that my old DAT scores were not that good. Thanks guys

I would go ahead and include your current DAT score in your application. When you request for your new scores to be sent in July, the dental schools will get a score report that indicates all the scores you received within the past 3 years. They will see your old score and your new score. So if you don't include your current scores, they will wonder why you didn't indicate on your application, and that probably won't impress them.
