I just took my DAT for the second time. Here are my scores:
PAT 21, QR 20, RC 18, Bio 20, GC 25, OC 22, TS 22, AA 21
First time scores:
PAT 18, QR 21, RC 15, Bio 22, GC 22, OC 23 ( I did not record my TS and AA).
GPA: 3.80 cGPA and a 3.69 sGPA.
EC
-leadership positions in three clubs (I am the co-founder of one of the student organizations)
-around 100 volunteering hours (nursing home visits, tutoring kids and high school students)
- around 100 shadowing hours in three different places (Two private practices and one hospital clinic), so I saw a good variety of different treatments.
- one semester of being a research assistant (I did not do anything significant here, just helped my supervisor to get data by performing a simple experiment)
- a good recommendation from a dentist, and two letters from my professors.
Background: I am a biology major at a top 20 school. I am a NY permanent resident, but not a citizen. I am an Asian male, and I am from a socioeconomically disadvantaged family.
I posted the same thread before, but most people suggested me to re-post it after my DAT. I know this might be too many schools to apply to. Please tell me what schools I should remove. Budget is not a problem since I have been saving money for this cycle. However, I still want to apply wisely. I am happy to go to any schools, so no preference for any specific types of schools.
My only concern is my RC score. Even my second RC is above the reported cutoff 17, I still think it it too low to be considered competitive. My first 15 and second 18 definitely show my weakness in English. This is somehow true since English is my second language, but I have been doing very well in all of my English and writing-based classes. Do you guys the other parts of my application can compensate my weakness in English?
