I took the DAT in late January after only studying for about 2 weeks (totally regret not studying longer) and my scores were:
GC-22
OC-19
BIO-16 😡
QR-19
RC-17
TS-19
AA-19
PAT-20

I am leaning towards a retake in early June but I am not 100% sure yet. I'm a Bio major and I have a 3.6 GPA and a 3.5 Sci GPA. Should I retake??? Would my new DAT score be processed with my application if I submit it in early June as well??? Thanks for any advice.
 
If only two weeks of studying gave you these scores, then you will definitely improve a lot on your retake if you study more. Biology is the single most important section on the DAT. It doesn't make sense why you did the lowest there considering you're a bio major. Anyway...you still have time to improve on that before June 4th. I highly recommend that you retake. Your new score will be processed if you take it in early May. If you take it any later, schools might end up looking at your old DAT and you don't want that.
