Hi

I am applying for over 10+ schools and when I was signing up for the DAT exam, I think I get 5 schools free and if its over that then its $10 per school. My question is, is it possible that I select only the a few schools I want my result to go to, and when I get the results, I can fax the rest of the schools. I mean has anyone done that or anyone have any experiance?

Questions/comments welcomed, thank you.

You can do that but I would think its going to take a long time to get those other scores out. I think it still costs $10 per additional school (correct me if I am wrong).

yes $10 a school. but since I am applying to 16 schools, that is $160 +the $170 exam fee. any suggestions?

you can certainly fax your scores to the schools but schools will want your official scores sent directly from ADA. I am afraid you will have to fork out the money. I had to pay the same amount.

OK thanks. but its highway robbery that ADA would charge $10 per school from EVERY student considering it costs then less then 1 cent. they already cover their fees from the $170 testing fees.
