Canadian vs. American DAT

[Leo Messi]

Hey guys,

First of all, I'm not sure if this topic should go here or in the Pre-Dental section. I wrote the Canadian DAT at the end of February and I got the results back:

RC - 21
BIO - 24
GC - 23
Science Total - 23
Academic Average - 23
PAT - 22

I am wondering how American dental schools will take these Canadian DAT scores and whether or not they scale it relative to the American DAT. Would you recommend I take the American DAT this summer (or the Canadian one again in November)? I have been reading up on how some American schools only take American DAT scores but those schools also aren't very open to accepting many (if any) Canadian citizens.

Thank you for any help!

Most Canadian friendly schools also accept the Canadian DAT. Check with the schools you're interested in but I doubt you would have to retake it.
