So, I'm sure you're all tired of people asking about scores, GPA, and such, but I'm going to burden you again. If this thread annoys you, then please just don't respond to it. We're all here to help each other, not be to snide. I just took the OAT today, and I didn't really have time to study much. My AA was a 320, which is actually better than I thought I could pull off. I think my scores in a few sections were below 300 though. (For example, I knew the math, but just got burned out and ran out of time--got a 280). I'm wondering if I should re-take the exam? My GPA is 3.9 from a four-year university, I did shadow, and my letters of recommendation I think were very strong (I had a good rapport with the professors). I already have an interview, which was given to me without the school even having any OAT scores. I am also a state resident of the school to which I have applied. What do you guys think? Will my other strong points make up for my lackluster scores? I sincerely thank you for any replies.

Definitely Don't retake it. Your gpa and those scores will get you into any school you want except maybe berkely and suny. I had the same AA and 2 scores under 300 with a 3.7 gpa and got interviews to every school I applied to so you will be fine!

Thanks for your encouragement! I really don't feel like taking the exam again. I didn't apply to either Berkeley or SUNY, so I should be good on that front.
