As I read into this website where I already applied to UCSF School of Dentistry, I am willing to retake my DAT but under FAQs (Dental Admission Test) they said that they wont hold my application until the new scores arrive. It said under that question that "if we recieve your AADSAS application with valid DAT scores that meet our requirements, your file will enter the review process. And there is another question saying that "My DAT scores do not meet your minimum requirement, but I am planning on retaking the DAT so will you hold my application until the new scores arrive? And they said yes. I would like to know what is that suppose to mean. I have an 18 AA and 19 TS DAT scores and they do meet the UCSF's requirements, but I want to retake my DAT to become more competitive and in this case, they are not going to hold my application until the new scores arrive. This sux!!! What can I do. I want to become more competitive since I meet the requirements.

Here is the link to their website under the category of DAT where they have all this info:
