Late DAT question

[busupshot83]

If you apply in June with everything completed in your application except your DAT scores, what's the latest, realistically, you can turn in your scores and still have a shot at gaining acceptance? 😳

I took my DAT early last September and got into 4 schools (out of 6). I personally think, realistically, that you can send you DAT scores in mid/late september and if you have a good GPA, then you probably have a solid shot at many schools.

How long does it take for you to obtain your DAT scores after taking the test? Do you get it back that fast?

you get the scores at the center, and they send the official ones to the schools which takes 3-4 weeks to get into their hands. What I did was faxed my scores to the schools and told them that they should recieve the official one in 3-4 weeks. Needless to say, I got many interviews 1-2 weeks after I faxed my scores in

One more thing buddy:

You can take the DAT any month of the year, correct?

any month you want dude...one thing...work hard and have passion. If you add those two things to your resume, many dental schools will invite you in with open arms 👍
