I'm just trying to get a feel for how competitive my stats (overall and DAT specifically) would be for the univ. of Colo and UOP. I know that UOP tends to look for DAT scores over 20 across the board. I have also heard that reading comp has recently become regarded as the best indicator of performance in school. Is it now one of the most scrutinized scores? Thanks

Academic Average: 21
Perceptual: 18
Quantative Reasoning: 22
Reading Comp: 18
Biology: 22
Gen. Chem: 21
Organic: 23
Total Science: 22

GPA: 3.8

UOP also wants high PAT scores at least a 20. However you scores are spectacular. Your gpa is a phenomenal, I think you got a great chance.

Thanks Desi

I should have included this in the first post, but I guess my real concern is whether or not I should consider retaking the DAT for a good shot at getting into UOP.

Thanks

Don't worry Dentchlbound
My DAT score is alomost identical to your scores. I got in with lower GPA. Make yourself well rounded, you will be fine.

Those are excellent stats! If you want to get into UOP....it's all in the presentation of your application (especially the personal statement). I would not retake the DAT. Hope to see you there! Best of luck!
