Hi,
I am going to apply this year and I know that most of the dental school's applications open on June. So is it better to take DAT before June?

Thanks,

June or July would be safe enough that your application would be complete early enough, August at the latest IMO.

I would say take before June, ideally. July is definitely too late. With rolling admissions, you don't want to have a part of your application missing

I took it mid august last year and was asked to interview at 4 out of 9 dental schools and was accepted. Best advice I can give is to take it when you are ready. But definitely get your application in ASAP when it comes out.
