Hi, I took DAT recently and do I have to post the scores on the AADSAS application or not since they are sent out to the designated dental schools.
Thank you all for answering.

Yes hi i'm new here, and i have the same question, this is what i pulled from ada.org:

"Official score reports will be sent directly to dental schools requested on the DAT application approximately 3–4 weeks after the test; five score reports are included in the application fee.
Requests for score reports after the test are subject to delay and additional expense. Once an application has been submitted, no score report request changes will be allowed."



i think that means u already sent ur scores to 5 schools from the DAT application, not your AADSAS application, so i wana know what do i have to do to send my DAT scores to a couple more schools? the copy i have isn't official is it? so where do i go to request official scores to be sent? the prometric site again? thanks.

Yes, I think u have to contact the prometric, there's smth saying that it's only required additionnal expense. Generally, I think it's possible to do.
Concerning my question-- AADSAS doesn't block some sections for updating info including DAT scores so I think u have to update it ... may be it's a way forthe school to see your scores (unofficial) before they get official.. don't know ,really.

To request official scores to be sent use this website:http://www.ada.org/prof/ed/testing/dat/index.asp
on the right hand side it says "additional resources" then further down "after the test". you can either request your scores to be sent electronically or there is a pdf document you can print.
