Hi all, so it seems that everyone always told me APPLY AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE! and that people who apply early, get early interviews. but now it seems that I gave up extra time that I could have had to study for the DAT to apply in July, and no hint of an interview, just 2 rejections. Now I'm starting to think that it might have been better to take my DAT in September/October and get higher scores, like the rest of people who did that and have a much better chance! I have average scores and know that even if I do get an interview invite phone call/email it will probably be after New Years. I was just wondering, if I have an advantage for applying "early" over the other students who have similar or higher DAT scores who took the test late?? Because if D-schools are just keeping my app around to see if they get more applicants with higher scores- they will- people that took the whole summer+some fall to study, vs. me who only had 2 months.
So is there really a point to apply early unless you have 20+ scores??
