I postpond DAT dat from AUG to DEC however, I am thinking I just postpond it again to May next year.

Does it have any problem with it ? or dental school would know that I did it and dislike it ?




I am having trouble with studying DAT with my school now..

It's so hard to do both of them..


Do you guys have any suggestion or advice when studying both DAT and school class at the same time ?


THanks

I never liked the idea of preparing for DAT while taking full-time course loads. I personally like the idea of studying for 3 months in the summer and take it before the fall semester starts, but obviously you had missed that opportunity now.

As far as delaying the exam, it doesn't matter how many times you delayed. The score when you take the exam is what counts. Make sure to take it when you are ready.

I would suggest take it in the late January before the spring semester starts (Intense 4-week study after fall semester ends). If you have been preparing all this time (I'm assuming because you said you were going to take it in August originally), you pretty much have an idea what you need to do and how you should study. 4 weeks is plenty I think... to review and cover everything you need to know.

But by all means, if you are not on a rush take it next year. No reason to hurry.

So, is it fine if I change the date to next year ?

I mean dental school doesn't care about it ? and also they don't even know that I changed the date of DAT ?

Dental schools won't care (can they even see it). Keep in mind though, you can only postpone up to a year from your original schedule date otherwise they charge you more money (more than the regular $25 reschedule fee).

Yea I don't even think they see it. Take it when you are ready brother.
