Can someone tell me the answer regarding more than one DAT and degree?

[ygh237]

Hello,

Would someone know that how dental schools decide which DAT score to use if I have more than one? The most recent one or the higher one?
And if I have two bachelor degrees, one is from the US and the other one is from foreign country. Would they use both transcript to calculate cGPA or only the most recent degree?

Any help is much appreciated!
Thank you

Every school is different. Some take the most recent while others take the highest.

I imagine they’d include your foreign transcript as well in GPA calculations. Especially if you took some pre-reqs there.

For GPA calculation, I have all the pre-requisites in the second degree and the first one is international and also non-science related. Any thoughts please?

Per the AADSAS:

"Should I include foreign coursework in the Transcript Entry section?" No.
