Hello,
I submitted my application June 5. I took DAT July 6.
I got:
TS:20
AA:19
PAT:15

I also got a 15 in math.

I only sent my scores and supplemental to Howard with a letter stating I am submitting my retake score in October.

I know I will be rejected right away from most if not all school because of my low PAT and I wanted to ask anyone else how they tackled the supplemental+DAT retake situation.

Should I submit all supplemental fees now and then come October, the new DAT score will be sent?

Should I wait till October to send my supplemental fees?

Thank you for your input.

If you seriously feel like you will do alot better on your DATs, then I would go ahead an pay all supplemental fees and submit the supplemental applications....

This way the schools will know that you are very serious about getting into dental school... and the ONLY component left to complete your application would be your new DAT scores...
