It was my second time taking the DAT.. my first DAT grade were really bad.. AA 17... and also I have an overalll GPA of 3.65 and the science GPA of 3.65... (graduated at SUNY at Buffalo in biology major).

do you guys think these grades will be enough to get into any school?
Im just a little worried about my RC grade..

p.s. oh! and Im more than willing to answer with any questions if anybody has one...
 
what was your reading comp last time? that will play a big factor im sure. aside from that, just be careful when applying. make sure you only choose schools that dont have a minimum cutoff above that for RC. that way you dont blow money sending scores and apps to schools that will disqualify you immediately anyway.
 
congrats on such and improvement

do you mind posting your practice scores from topscore/achiever/crack/kaplan?

how long did you study this time around?

apply as early as possible!
 
Solid scores, congratulations. RC was the most challenging for me too. Like whateveryoulike said, jsut be sure to check the schools for their minimum cutoffs and ask to see if a retake would be advised. I know that might not be something you want to hear but some schools are uping their minimum for RC to 17. Your GPA is very good, so you might want to let the admissions people know that if you decide to call them.

how'd you do on RC the first time around!

How do u find out which schools have a cutoff limit
 
You have to check their website to see their specific cutoffs
 
I would retake to bring up that RC. A lot of schools have cutoffs. Tufts raised their RC cutoff to 17 this year.
 
Nice solid scores except for that RC, I'm not going to lie to you, but what happened? Your sciences, PAT, and GPA are good. If I were you I would find out the cutoffs for the schools you're interested in applying to, having to retake again for RC would really suck!

On a brighter side, great improvement. What did you use to study? What did you do differently this time compared to the first time around?
 
Nice improvement ... congrats and good luck if you decide to retake to improve your RC
