Hey all, recently took my DAT (8/7/2017) and I am trying to figure out how long it is going to take for ADA to process the test so my schools can get it. I have heard it can take around 2 weeks but also I have heard it will take around 3-4 weeks.

Really just trying to figure out if someone has recently taken their test and how long it took for ADA to process their test and release their test scores, please let me know!
 
While I haven't taken it recently, it took them 3 weeks to process mine and a few people in the Pre-Dental section recently mentioned processing times of 3-4 weeks.

It can also be quicker, and I knew a lot of people in my cycle that only had to wait 1-2 weeks. Not sure why there's such a difference in processing time.
 
Took mine 8/2, and the status changed to "tested" this morning, so exactly two weeks for that. Now I just hope that the score will get sent to AADSAS soon...
