hi, i took my DAT couple of weeks ago. I am not satisfied with my scores. I just discovered this forum and I am wondering if people who are already in dental schools or are applying can help me out. I have a science GPA of approximately 3.77. I have been a part of three independent research projects, two that are hopefully going to be published sometime this school year (fingers crossed). Because of all the commitments, I couldn't study as much as a typical DAT taker would. Also, I felt prepared because of my dat practice tests. Below is my breakdown. Please let me know if I stand any chances. I don't take criticism personally so please give me your honest opinion! Thank you!!

Here is my breakdown:

PAT 20
QR 18
RC 19
BIO 23
GC 20
OC 18

TOTAL SCIENCE 20
ACADEMIC AVERAGE 20

Dude, you are solid in getting into dental school. Your scores are great! I don't know why you are worried. Also, those research projects you are doing will be a plus on applications. You are definitely getting into dental school! Just apply to at least 10.
