Designating dental schools when applying for DAT...

Remember that checklist? I've designated my schools and have submitted my app but I may have not checked off one or two of the schools to send my scores to from when I registered for the DAT. Will my scores not reach that particular dental school?

I blame registering early and not researching the dental schools for this..

also curious about this.

I remember reading that there would be a $32 fee for every unchecked school, which I didn't understand at all.

Agreed. If you didn't check off the dental schools you wanted to apply to at the time of application (which was free), then Prometric will charge you additional fees for whatever additional schools you want to send your DAT scores to.

I found this out right before taking my DAT, so I called and asked them to checkmark ALL dental schools just in case. It was free since I hadn't taken my DAT yet.

Since you're only off by 1-2 schools, at least the fees won't be too bad!

then why were people saying that as long as you checked off one school, you wouldn't have to worry about being charged extra?

I will never understand why people don't just check every name.. ITS FOR FREE!!!! JUST PICK EVERY SCHOOL!!!
