Hello all, so I'm applying and currently thinking of schools to apply to. I have a 3.05 in undergrad and did a post-bac at SFSU with a gpa of 3.88. My DAT scores are as follows:

PAT 22
QR 19
RC 19
Bio 17
GC 20
OC 24
TS 19
AA 20

This was my 3rd time taking it back in 2012 and I have done much better on the bio section 22 and 21 consecutively. I was hoping to apply to UOP but I know they require higher stats. Anyone know where I lie and which schools you would recommend that I apply to with these stats? I would like to stay in California IF possible. Thanks!

I don't know anything about schools out in California, but your stats look extremely healthy to me! Best of luck.

What's your overall GPA? And your science/bcp GPAs?

They were both 3.0 during undergrad at UCSD.

All of your undergrad + postbacc classes will be included in the AADSAS GPAs. I suggest you calculate your GPAs including all your coursework and then use that and the DAT to come up with a list of schools to apply to.

Did you just retake the DAT or did you apply with these scores last year? If you applied with these scores last year, what have you done to significantly improve your odds of getting in this year? Did you try to contact adcoms at schools you were rejected from to see what they recommend you do? I think that you need to give some good thought as to what adcoms would expect to see from you in terms of improvement before deciding to apply again.
