I'm taking the DAT July 3rd, my transcripts aren't in yet (they were sent this week) and my LOE's aren't in yet, though they should be within the next couple of weeks. Should I e-submit now or wait until I take my DAT so I know if I need to re-take it? If I submit now and do poorly on the DAT, can I still retake it in 3 months and count that score?

EDIT
I submitted it a week and a half ago! Thanks for the advice 🙂

If you are done inputting every section in then yes, submit it now. The dental schools will wait for everything to be sent in to look at your application. If you do poorly on your DAT's you still have time to retake it. The deadline for most schools is at the end of the year. Also AADSAS will process things as they come in. You don't want your application to be the thing holding you up down the road so if your application is complete, send it in now!
 
🙂 I sent it a week ago. GPA's verified.

Do you know at all if your complete application was processed and/or sent to schools? How do you know what the GPA verification indicates in the application process? Thanks for any feedback.
