Hello everyone,

Here's the thing. Im opening my ADDSAS on June and plan to take the DAT either at the end of June or first week of July. Im applying to 16 schools here in US and 2 in Canada. When I pay for the DAT should I send my scores to the 16 schools right then (and pay the xtra money for the additional schools), or should I wait to see how I do? and then pay the xtra money for my scores to be send to the other schools!
I just dont know if I should risk it! What if I dont do so good and then i have to retake and pay again all that money!

I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR YOUR OPINION! THANKS AND GOOD LUCK TO ALL OF YOU STUDYING THIS SUMMER! GO CLASS OF 2014!!! 😉

Really depend on the schools. Some schools accept your score input from AADSAS, some schools request officially from ADA, some schools will be OK to receive score from your school health organizations.

I will suggest you to input your score first. Check your status after that. If the school wants your official score, contact them, see if they accept the score from your school health organizations (This save a lot of $$$). If they don't, then just pay 25 bucks and forward it. Also, based on my experience, once I paid, the school didn't get the official score immediately...
