They may not look at the recent one, because they r too lazy to check again. Some people already got rejected because the schools they applied didn't look at their 2nd or better score due to their laziness.isd121 said:

I would not be so dishearted. Those are good scores you should be proud of them. So the PAT is low, so what, at least it is not below 15. I think you have a shot at interviews and acceptances. Don't let any negativity from yourself or other's posts discourage your dream. GOOD LUCK! 😀
I agree with Rockstar - your scores are excellent, you have experience and a great GPA - worse comes to worse, you'll have to take it again, but I don't think this will hold you back or be the case... maybe play up your hands on experience in the dental field to compensate for your PAT scores, or have the dentist write a recommendation letter focusing on your abilities in the dental field. I wish you luck!! 🙂
You should be ok. Don't much worry about your science scores going down b/c they know that it is based on a log scale and missing one question would make a big difference. Good that you brought your QR and RC scores up. and good that you took it again and did your best. If you hadn't taken it again, you would have always regreted it. I think they look at both DAT scores (i am not sure)
About your PAT: Get a recommendation letter that emphasizes on your hand-eye coordination. Did you do some work for the dentists, so they can comment on your skills? Also, if you see a manual dexterity question on the secondaries, emphasize on your skills there (don't lie though). These would help compensating for the low score.
In the interview, be prepared to talk about your low PAT and have good excuses at hand ( i don't know what excuses, may be ask a few people about it).
I think you are in a good shape to get interviews.
Good luck!

I agree with Rockstar as well.... You should have NOTHING to worry about! As long as your GPA's are decent. Your scores are great... You'll be fine with those scores, even with the 15 on PAT.
The worst thing you can do is get down on yourself. Believe me, it's coming from plenty of experience. If you decide to, you CAN re-take the DAT for this application cycle, just do it in December and notify the schools when you do. Your dreams are certainly NOT down the tube, you still have a shot of getting in this year. In the worse case, you don't...and you reapply next year. If you really want it, perservere and you will get in.
