Seeing all these breakdowns with 24 AA's and higher are causing me to have panic attacks. It no longer looks like the average matriculating student will have an AA of 20, and having just got a 21 AA this is very discouraging. I know the average AA rises every year but this year seems crazy. Should I consider retaking?

Here are my scores, I'm looking mostly at East Coast schools (VCU, NYU, Rutgers, Temple, etc)
 
You should be fine. A score of 20+ with nothing below a 18 usually means you will get an interview. There are students with near perfect DAT and high GPAs that don't get accepted because they are too socially awkward. There are many factors to consider. You may not be first pick of the "draft", but you're still a first round pick. Get it?

Haha, relax. Those are some great scores posted, not everyone who is applying is posting, so there are lots of 20's. However, everyone is studying, so make sure you know your stuff.
