Hey guys,
So I JUST finished with the DAT. Let me first start by thanking everyone, especially Condog, for their help. I didnt do as well on the PAT as I would've liked based on my practice tests, but anyway how do these scores look:

AA: 22
TS: 22
OC: 19
GC: 28
Bio: 23
RC: 23
QR: 19
PAT: 17 😱

I have a 3.87 overall GPA and around a 3.85 science GPA. How do my chances look for getting into dental school? Some of these threads stress the huge importance of the PAT so I'm a little nervous about my 17, but other than that I was pretty happy!! Any feedback would be appreciated!
Thanks!!

You're money. Many schools don't even care about the PAT, and the majority of schools have a minimum requirement of 17 in all of the sections, so you should be in great shape (Michigan is the only exception off the top of my head, but they may be a few others).

LOL, err, no. I think he means why is there someone with a 22AA and a 3.8+ GPA asking if they have chances to get into dental school. Point well-taken. It's almost sickening when folks with your stats ask a question like that.

Anyways, not so sure about the PAT. Some schools have a 17 cutoff.

You should be applying to 20+ schools in order to stand a good chance.
