So after pushing my test date twice I finally retook the DAT today. I slept terrible before and woke up throwing up so was feeling like I would do terrible but surprisingly I did much better than expected.

My scores were:

PA: 23
QR: 20
RC: 21
Bio: 21
GC: 22
OC: 19
TS:21
AA: 21

When the score popped up I was shocked that I did so well. Last time I took the DAT I got an 18 TS an 18 AA with a 24 PAT. I got onto a few waitlists but I think the chances are pretty dismal at this point. I would like to get into OHSU, Creighton (RDEP program since I'm from Ut), or Marquette. I have a 3.62 GPA and 3.37 science. I've done quite a bit of research and have lots of extracurriculars. What do you think my chances are?

you'll get in somewhere. although, i would try not to limit myself to just those schools. you're definitely "competitive" though. wish i was in your shoes, this DAT is killing me.

Those are just my top 3 schools that I am applying to. I applied to about 20 schools total.

Wow did you apply to 20 schools last cycle too? With that gpa I'd think you'd get in at least somewhere last time. Did you apply late?

The only time you can use a calculator is on the math section. You just have to push the little button that says calculator. One thing I would be careful about though is pushing clear on it every time. It seems like sometimes not doing that gets you the wrong answer.

I Interviewed at Western and Midwestern but didn't get in. I am on the waiting list for the RDEP program. My aadsas was submitted the first day possible last cycle (so no I did not apply late).
