Our apps are pretty similar except my dat is lower and gpa a tad higher. I applied to 9 schools as well and have been constantly thinking about adding more.

With such a low DAT AA, you should probably apply to more schools.

The stats look a lot nicer as a summary... My undergraduate transcript (no postbac) is pretty horrific. I failed a class, numerous C's, incomplete, two NP courses (one is science). Things I feel are hard to look past, even if they were a long time ago.

Well, if this is for real, I'm assuming you are a CA resident. If not, yes, apply to more schools. If you are a resident, I'd go back to the acceptance thread from last year and see which schools gave scholarships for out of state students and apply to those schools. I'd like to see the actual score sheet, not just a breakdown 😀.

Amazing DAT score! Applying to 9-12 schools will definitely be enough with your stats!
