Took DAT August 12th, it seems that schools are either just updating my file and reviewing my app or haven't even done so yet. Only one invite from NYU.

Does anybody know how long you can wait before scheduling an interview? If you wait too long will it like void or cancel? I want to wait to see if I get invited to tufts and boston so I can schedule all three during the same week if possible to save a trip.

It was bothering me too but i wasnt going to say anything, but once you bring it up, the proper vernacular is Take your DAT. You dont write it, thats the ADA's job.

In Canada you write it because our dat is still on paper🙂

wow. that stinks - i would really hate a paper DAT, but then I guess it must have its advantages as well (esp for RC)

I dont think you stats "aren't that good either" ... your GPA might be a bit low compared to most but at the same time UC Berkeley is a bit tougher and more respected than most schools

I took mine AUG 2nd & got interviews @ Louiville, Midwestern and USC so far...

I took my DAT August 21, faxed my scores on the 22nd, and got an invite on August 28.

one question, can you actually fax your own copy of the DAT scores??? I thought that is not official???

 

[swati10]

What do you all mean by faxing you scores? We can do that?? Please elaborate on how to do this. I took it on the 2nd. I want to fax my scores as well.

It depends on the school. I called the school that I had my unofficial scores faxed to and they said that it was okay until my official scores were received b/c I had everything else in. You should call the schools and ask if they allow this.
