Length of time it takes DS to receive official DAT scores

This is the only confirmation I've seen from a school that it only takes a few days from test day to receive official scores electronically.

Is it still thought that it can take 4+ weeks for schools to get the scores?

this was from the BU application confirmation email:

"We regularly download official DAT scores electronically from the ADA and we will receive your official scores within a few days of the test date."

same question.

When I talked to a lady on the phone from ADA, she said it takes around 2 weeks but can take up to 4 weeks.

is there anyway of finding out whether or not schools have received our scores? I took the DAT 7/2 and haven't heard from any schools about my scores.

I just called ADA today. Scores sent out every Wednesday. My 7/13 scores will go out 8/5. Would have gone out yesterday, but they were updating something this week so nothing went out.

When you say they go out every Wednesday, does that mean my scores from Tuesday 8/4 will go out Wednesday 8/5? I tend to think not.

If they go out every Wednesday, then your scores could have gone out 7/15, 22 or 29. Seems like even if they go out every Wednesday, they have a backlog. I wish they'd send out all the scores in the system as of that day.

Why do they say it takes 2-4 weeks?
