Is there ANY difference between unofficial / official DAT report?

[dentalWorks]

Im so confused about this... when I left the DAT testing center last october, they gave me my scores.... on the sheet it says "unofficial score report"...

Does this mean that when I apply, dental schools will get the "official" score report and that report might have different scores on it ?

You'll have the same standardized scores on the official score report, but it won't show your percentages. I spent the few extra bucks to send myself a copy, and it was just a quarter sheet of paper with my name, ID, and my scores with just the standard (1-30) scores.

The ADA or whoever is in charge of the DAT checks for errors then forwards the scores to the schools. And like Viper said, they don't show percentiles. I haven't heard of someone score changing due to errors though.
