sci gpa: 3.7
gpa: 3.6
bio major, 4 general dentist internships, 1 orthodontist internship, research, volunteer, very involved on campus etc. very good letter of recommendations

retaking DAT oct 4th (late?!)

2. I want to call admissions to schools im very interested in but not sure what questions are appropriate to ask since is concerning my scores. how do i get my name out there?

3. if there is a supplemental app that requires short essays is it okay to wait a week before i respond? i am out of town!!

4. majority of schools recieved my application but my letter of recommendations are not being sent out until aug 20th. will they look at my application and scores without considering the letters?

help! thanks!

unfortunately,,, i think retake is a must... some sections just cant go below 17... Bio is one. good luck

I believe you should retake. 18AA with a 17RC and a 16BIO is not great. Your gpa is impressive, try to improve your RC and BIO score and I think you will be in better shape.
