You need to retake and get like a 20 or 21 to solidify your chances

Ditto. Look at the averages for the schools you are interested in. They are likely closer to 3.6 and 19 AA, and you are considerably below those marks.

Don't get discouraged though, I've seen people succeed many times with much worse statistics. And it seems like you do other things as well, which will help out.

def retake. not to sound mean/rude...yor GPA isn't that great and the scores are nowhere near competitive. however, don't get discouraged. you still have lots of time. i would suggest go thru DAT destroyer, and do whatever you can do. after that, sorta try to pinpoint what your weaknesses are in each section. then study those things thoroughly for about 3-4 weeks. by that time, u will probably have forgotten all the Destroyer questions so give it another try and see if you can do it better than the first time around. I would suggest study from now thru July and take it sometime in the end of July. Gluck!

Ya, so just glimpse through this book and you just secured yourself a minimum of a 25 AA. 🙄
Is it coincidence that most of your posts are praising Destroyer?

To the OP: Hit your textbooks for gchem and ochem. Cliffs for Bio.
Know everything cold. good luck

 

[iwannabadentist]

i personally really like destroyer...im using it right now for my retake. didn't use it the first time i took it. i think its worth it for sure.

I recommend you retake it also, maybe you can switch up your studying resources, how'd you study? and where do you plan on applying?

 

[Hot Homer]

Good Luck with the retake. What method did you use for RC ? maybe change that up next time

 

[eldirty]

I also recommend a retake ...
