hey guys,

I haven't been able to take my DAT yet due to a lot of unforeseen circumstances. (As a cherry on top of my circumstances, I now have strep throat too. yay).

I plan on taking it within the next month, before October's up. My gpa's ~3.2 all around, but my app is otherwise very good (ec, letters, personal statement, etc) and I work p/t as an assistant now too. my app has been sitting on adcom desks since August. Am I really going to damage my chances with this postponement?

I applied to nyu, temple, umdnj, nova, buffalo, and a couple others...

please dish out your educated opinions.

thanks, as always.

especially with NOVA hmm...
others I guess will be fine...
especially NYU

I'm on the same boat, taking the DAT on Friday (topscore/achiever 16-17), 3.3 sGPA, 3.1cGPA about 2 years d-experience.

Just be sure to conquer the DAT and immediately fax schools your unofficial DAT scores.
Best or Luck
