DAT done...Should I retake?

[singingdentist]

I took the DAT 5/29/09, but am still debating whether or not to retake. I already submitted my application to AADSAS on 6/6/09. I am a music major at Western Michigan University. My total GPA is 3.89 and my science GPA is 4.00. I'm really shooting for Michigan, Detroit Mercy, and Case.

Bio 19
GC 18
OC 20
PAT 20
RC 22
QR 17
AA 19
TS 19

I used the Kaplan DAT guide for each section, went through the whole DAT
Destroyer and used Top Score. My practice test scores were equivalent to what I received except I scored significantly lower on the real RC as I did in Top Score. I was receiving 28s and 29s on Top Score's RC because it was much easier than the real thing. My PAT and QR were about 1 point lower than practice test scores.

I don't think you need to re-take. You have an excellent GPA and average DAT scores. You have also applied early, so you are pretty set. Just sit back and wait for those interview invites to come!

Thanks for the advice. I'm still just a little worried about my gen chem score
