Is it too late if I take my DAT Sept 2? My application will be Esubmitted in July with everything there. I was going to take the DAT a bit earlier but when signing up at my nearest Prometric center I realized all the good dates are full and I live in a state with three centers only. I will have to drive 180ish miles to the test center for the Sept 2 date. Also my gpa is 3.9+, ogpa and sgpa. I know there are similar threads out there and I have read them all for the most part, but I am just looking for some advice specific to me. I am applying to about 23 schools (don't mind the cost) to counterbalance a potentially late application (even though I may have higher than average stats). Also note that my state doesn't have any dental schools. I don't want to wait until next year because I have basically graduated already and in that case would lose another year. Basically, life keeps hitting me hard causing me to have delayed the application this long. I was so ready in May to study and do well on the DAT, but the darn outside forces that you can't control got to me. Despite this, I am a generally happy person and can only laugh at myself for this. I like to live on the edge and potentially I subconsciously sabotaged myself to force an uphill battle at an acceptance. I see that so many of you have already applied with everything there and that is quite intimidating. What are your thoughts? I am a nervous wreck lol
