DAT AADSAS Dilemma

Hello SDNers,

I am in dire need of some advice. My AADSAS was mailed out to schools on July 5th without my DAT scores. I took my most recent DAT in March. It has not been linked to my application because the date of birth associated with my DentPin was not my actual DOB. I contacted the ADA and they changed the DOB associated with my DentPin.

The problem is I do not know what I need to do now since my DAT scores have yet to link to my application. I have contacted the ADA a few times and they have not been able to help me. They gave me the impression that my unmatched scores on AADSAS would be updated with my new DOB and that they would be linked to my application. I am considering paying $260 for brand new score reports to the 8 schools that I applied too. Has anyone had a problem like this?

I haven't had a problem like this. But I am sure pretty sure AADSAS will automatically link your name to your score.

Keep Calling AADSAS/ ADA, you will eventually get lucky and talk to someone who takes immediate action about your issue.
I kept calling them b/c my DAT scores were taking a long time to show up on my AADSAS and everyone said they will look into it until this guy just did it on the spot and called me back to confirm that everything had gone through, Maybe explain your situation and insist on someone taking immediate action.

Maybe you can get a details/timeline on an update.
Still waiting on my scores as well, but it's great to be proactive about it.
GL!

Don't buy score reports! So long as you selected ONE school when you signed up for your DAT, all of them will get your scores along with you application. You'll be wasting a large sum of money.

Like others have said, just keep calling. It definitely shouldn't take this long. How long has it been since you updated your DOB?
