Hi
I just took the DAT today. Are these scores good enough to get in or should I retake the test as soon as I can?

PA 23
QR 14 (totally ran out of time😡)
RC 20
Bio 19
GC 19
OC 15 (oops)🙁
TS 18
AA 17

I have a 3.5 GPA so that may help.
I used the Kaplan BB solely. It was fine for the gen chem section but lacked in the orgo and bio sections. I would definitely branch out and use other sources as well if I take the test again.
 
Ouch, I would if I were you. 17AA isn't going to get you in. my $.02
 
on QR, i think crack DAT math might help, am about to purchase the bundle pack of $249... this test is coming out kinda pricey for me...!
 
i think u will still get a couple interviews(depending which schools). yea 17 AA is kinda low...i think 1 low score might be ok, but with 2 low scores, u might want to retake. i hav 1 low score but i'm gonna see wut happens within the nxt month before i decide on a retake...good luck to us.
 
I took my test yesterday and got really similar scores and have the same GPA. I also only used Kaplan to study. I'm planning on re-taking it in Dec. and using some other resources to study. I guess my advice would be that you do the same!! Best of luck to you 🙂

Def a retake, buy destroyer and watch your grades your jump. The 14 in QR hurts, but the 15 in orgo kills. I highly doub you will get any interviews anywhere. Better luck next time.
