Alright guys so I finally took this damn Exam and this is what happened.

PAT 18
QR 13 lol WTF
RC 17 :-(
Bio 23
GChem 19
Orgo 20

TS 21
AA 18

So I am really mad because one point higher in either reading or QR would have put me at a 19 AA. I think this just means that I have to rock out on any possible interviews. I Know I am late in the cycle so I am praying that I get at least one interview.

Basically in order to make this brief, the material that I used;
Kaplan, destroyer, Schuams Bio. I feel that with this combination of material, you should be able to do well in the sciences

Qr should not be bad for someone that is decent with math. I just really suck at it and cant really say much about it. Hopefully it is true about math not being as important this cycle.

PAT was very tough. I got a 20 last year so I am little upset with the drop in that section.

RC was also unfortunately a little tough. I was flowing through them but then just got some crazy questions about of the two statements, 1st is true and 2nd is false and other variations to that question.

Well my head is about to explode so let me know if you have any questions. I also wanted to know what you guys think of my chances for the cycle. Thanks

That depends on your GPA and how many schools you have applied to.

But you know, it is pretty late in the cycle so I dont think your chances are too good.....

Good luck!

Whoa! Jigabodo does NOT beat around the bush. Wow. I would tend to agree though. If you have a VERY high GPA you may be alright, but this is EXTREMELY late to first be trying to get in esp with that 13 in QR. Some schools won't consider you without at least an 16 in every section of the DAT. I also wish you luck. If your GPA is over 3.6, your chances will probably be increased a bit for this cycle.

I think you are just jealous because we signed Arod again. 😎

Seriously though, since when did this thread turn into Jigabodo bashing thread? Lets stay on the topic shall we? :idea:

i agree. i have no idea who Jigabodo is, but i know if were to post my scores and what not like the hundreds that do it ALL THE TIME already (kind of annoying if you ask me), i would expect everyone to be as upfront and honest as they could because i would not want to get my hopes up for nothing. and besides, you're only setting your self up for people to bash you if you have ANY kind of fault in your resume already (especially the ones that did wayyy better, or wayyy worse than you)...and then decide to post it on SDN for all the world to see... if you want people to point out your flaws, even though i'm sure you already know them, then do it, post your scores. but for those that decide to help that person out and be honest with them by giving their own opinion, let them because the OP had it coming the second they decided to post their scores. good day😀

oh yea, to stay on topic...i don't think your scores suck, but applying so late already...good luck my friend, good luck

No worries - I was just joking, and I'm sure jigaboob knows it 😉. When someone solicits opinions, it's an open discussion... but I don't think Jigabodo was speaking with draconian intent.

To the poster - keep your head up. I'm waiting out this cycle as well, so you won't alone in that. Best of luck dude/ette.

Ignore the weirdness happening above. If you've applied for this cycle, all you can do is sit back and wait.

Hehe. Not really. My fiance was looking over my shoulder while I was reading, and asked me, "Why did that guy name himself Jigaboob?"

Good job on finishing the test, despite your feelings about the result it is always a relief to have it done. Just like everyone else I agree that your chances are not good for this cycle - but wait it out and see what happens.

One ray of hope:
I was told that dental school were sent an e-mail from ADA stating that they had changed the QR around a little bit this year and to expect lower scores in that area. Mostly everyone this year has had some issues with QR. Maybe it won't hurt you as much as you think.

I pretty much knew these facts but the only reason why I posted my scores were for people who have not taken the exam yet. I know what my chances are for the cycle but I still know that I rocked out in one of the sections that means the most. If there are people freaking out about bio, I am here to help you out. Obviously I am not going to give exact questions but I know from watching this forum and talking to cool people, I can help out with study material. Well I only wish everyone good luck this cycle because if you put as much time as I did the last couple months, YOU deserve it. 🙂

Each year, A-Rod is slated to earn as much in salary as 153 dentists. Derek Jeter will earn as much in salary as 133 dentists, though because allegedly he cheated in taxes, he may lose as much in salary as 39 average dentists.*

Don't say I never did anything for you 😀.

*The average dentist's salary, as determined by the ADA.
