My DAT scores: 24AA, 21 PAT, 23 QR, 23 RC, 23 Bio, 23 GC, 27 OC, 24 TS.

My cumulative GPA: 3.6
My science GPA: 3.68

My science GPA is a rough estimate since I'm a mechanical engineering major and didn't know exactly which engineering courses count towards that.

I'm also a Montana resident.

Here's my list:

1. Colorado
2. Minnesota
3. Nebraska
4. Oregon
5. UNLV
6. UMKC
7: Louisville
8: Washington
9: Penn
10: Harvard

I'm basically just looking for advice on any schools I should consider after you take a look at my list, or any that you think I should take out of my list. Also I would have thrown Michigan on there but I won't be able to fit in their Sociology pre-requisite.

Just curious- why are you applying to Penn + Harvard, but not Columbia? You'd be a competitive candidate for all three.

Regardless, nice stats! Great work.

Thank you! I guess I'm just not very familiar with Columbia and I don't want to throw too many Ivy League schools on the application. I'm definitely open to researching them a little more though.

Great stats. What did you use to study for the bio section of the DAT?

Thanks! Destroyer, and Bootcamp. And YouTube for any topics I struggled on (pedigrees, chromatid/chromosome number etc.).

No AP barron or cliffs?

Nope. I found it too hard to focus when reading things. Bought Cliffs and tried to read Feralis but I can't effectively just read and study.
