my gpa is only ~3.3. My science gpa ~3.1. IF i get a 22AA on my DAT... which schools will significantly overlook my gpa (not entirely, of course) and consider my DAT more?

I'm afraid the answer to your question is very broad and not easily answered without investing some time researching.

The list provided in this link may help guide you in selecting your schools:

Every school is unique, some like DAT, some like GPA, some like community service, some like disadvantaged background, and some like in state students. Those numbers would give you a shot at some places, I'd even say a DAT as low as 20 would have a shot. I had very similar numbers to you with an 18AA and 20TS and got in this year, but I needed a 1 year masters, and I only had two interviews got into one out of 14 schools so you have to get lucky and do everything right. Also, not everyone can get a 22, maybe a 20, but those 2 extra points are for some special people, so don't put all of your chips on them.

No, a high DAT score will not cause them to overlook a subpar GPA. But it certainly will help your app so study hard and do the best you can.
