DAT & GPA - Competitive enough for UCLA?

[member1212]

Hi everyone,

I have an undergrad GPA of 3.794=overall and 3.711=science GPA as Biology major at UCLA. I just took my DAT on Friday and got:

PAT = 20
RC = 20
QR = 20
Bio = 20
GChem = 26
OChem = 22
TS = 22
AA = 22

Although I am pleased by my TS and AA, I was wondering if my 20's in the other categories, especially QR and PAT are strong enough for me to be competitive for UCLA Dental, which is my number one. If so, is it worth retaking my DAT later on in the cycle?

Thanks in advance for the advice!

Assuming that you're a CA resident, you're competitive at UCLA. If not, then not so much.
