Hello, i just got out of my DAT, I just took it again for the 4th and final time. I got an interview and they told me last year that i needed to bump up my bio score from a 16 to at least a 17 or higher.

so my question to all of you is how does this look. I am finishing my 2nd year in my masters and the admission lady really likes me. so heres the breakdown.
Bio- really test you on a wide range of questions. used cliffs but the questions were simple, but you had to know what your talking bout. Try to understand the material rather then memorize.
Chem- very straightforward and thought destroyer was overkill. the subject test from kaplan was right on point. just know your basics
Orgo- did destroyer and thougt it helped as well as the roadmaps. I feel that the kaplan book should prepare you well enough, but really thought the acs orgo book helped me the most. A must get
Perceptual- im just good at, but the top front end is hard. i really didnt study too much for it this time but it was very dooable
VR- i thought i killed it , but didnt do as well. search and destry worked for the 1st and 3rd passage, but the second passage it did not and it took too much of my time away
Quant- though was easy, but also screwed me. I though very little word questions and more math, but man were they tricky
Overall, i felt good, but .... im disapointed. I have gotten a 19 before in quant and a 18 in verbal just so you know. Tell me what you guys think ae my chances of getting in. any advice would be great cause im a little down after i was expecting a 19-20.
