Someone posted a while ago something which showed for a certain year the number and percentage of people who got each score on the DAT. I've been searching the forum but can't find it. Can somebody post it again? Thanks!

Ask Doc Toothache for it Im sure he was the one who posted it originally.

Wow, I'm taking a look at the data now...In 2007 only twenty people got 24s, five people got 25s, and one person got a 27. Are those scores really that rare? It's from a total of 8,897 people. The percentile for a 24 is higher than it was for mine so the scores in '07 were definitely a little lower, but it can't be by that much, can it?

Any idea when the ADA will release this for 2008?

It would be interesting to see the data on the Canadian Dat...
