DAT Date?

[Kelvindoan23]

Hey Guys....

I am just wondering if I'm taking the DAT on August 4th is that consider late or on time...and If I should submit my application before August 4th or wait for my score then submit?......Thanks

Not particularly early but not too late either, more like "on-time". If you plan on applying regardless of your DAT score, submit ahead of time.

you can submit your application for 1 school only (your top choice) so that AADSAS could process your application and as soon as you take your DATs, if you like your scores, then apply to more schools, if you don't... then you would have saved a couple hundreds or over a thousand dollars!

Are you retaking, or is this the first time you've taken the test?

If this is the first time you've taken the DAT, go ahead and submit everything else beforehand.

If you are retaking, read this thread.

August 4th isn't early, but it will be okay if you do well. On the day you take your DAT, scan in your scores and e-mail them to the schools you've applied to. This can speed things up.

Wow, that's really smart, I never actually considered that as an option.
