I took DAT today..
My miserable score is..

PA 17
QR 17
RC 17
Bio 19
GC 20
OC 17
TS 19
AA 18

GPA 4.0


My GPA is good,,, but DAT turned out SO BADLY.
Overall, my score represents I didn't study enough for each section.
(and I studied DAT for less than a month)

Do you think I can apply this year? Should I retake it? If I have to retake it, it's gonna be in November,, which is too late. I am not sure if I take DAT in november and still get into school.
Man.. Life is so tough.
I am so depressed today. Any advice??

It is not that bad. What materials did you use to study? How long (per day) did you study? I believe you should apply to few schools and plan on retaking the DAT in november. Your GPA is sick. You should be able to get an interviews. 😀

I used Kaplan BB (skimmed over), Crack PAT (tried only 5 tests), Destroyer (except bio), Topscore (only science section). I praticed only one time for reading and math. I had a month to study during summer because I was doing summer research in chemistry department at my school. Anyways, yeahh it's my fault that i didn't study enough.. I don't know which schools are "few schools" that I can apply for with my DAT score and GPA. All schools I want to go seem to have very high avg. DAT.. Thanks for your comment!

If rest of your application is good, I don't see why schools won't invite you for an interview. DAT is one of the factors considered.
