Hey guys....I took the DAT saturday afternoon, slept all day yesterday! Here are my scores:

24 QR, 22 PAT, 20 Bio, 23 Gchem, 19 Ochem, 22 RC

Overall, it was not bad at all....I think I overstudied, especially for the Gchem..

The Bio was straightforward, not in detail, very general. Same with the Ochem. I had like 8 reactions, the rest were about bond strngth, nucleophiles, etc...

Reading was'nt bad either. I had the passgaes on the metoers, the brain, and imaging techniques. QR was simple, I couldnt answer one problem, just got stuck on it...Figured it out now thought! Should have gotten it right!

Gchem was a joke. I knew all the formulas and how to solve all the problems, but they werent on the DAT. It was very broad, just theories and rules...

PAT wasnt bad at all either. I thought I did better than 22...I had the most trouble with the pattern folding, but on the DAT it was the easiest section. The angles were actually a lot tougher, very hard to differentiate btw. them. Overall though, I'm satisfied, wish I had done better on Ochem b/c my GPA isnt the best in the world. But, I have a lot fo other things that should round out my application hopefully. Later

good job. congrats

Congratulations, scores look great. Hopefully you will stick around and still help with answering questions since you seem to know a lot of them 😀 👍

Thanks! Yea, I'd rather stay in Houston iff possible. I have a condo down here in the med center, and having to move would be a hassle. I have Houston as 1 and Dallas as 2, SA 3...I dont want to move to San Antonio!!! My GPA is a concern though. I didnt do so hot for three years until I was diagnosed with adult ADD. Very weird since I had a 4.0 in high school, but I guess once the workload increased the symptoms started to show. Since then though, GPA has been real good, hopefully I can get an interview so I can explain to the admissions ppl face to face...

Great scores, BenignDMD - I think you and I had a very similar DAT on Saturday.

I live in Houston as well and it's definitely my top choice. I'm hoping they overlook the fact that I won't have a bachelor's by the time I start & look at my work history over the past 4-5 years. I could finish my bachelor's in time, but I would have to quit my job and wouldn't be able to support my wife & baby. If/When I get into dental school, my wife will go back to work at that point.

Do you have any idea on when Houston will start sending out letters for interviews?
