Hello SDers,

I'm currently finishing a formal Post-Bacc program at SFSU with a GPA~3.8-3.9 (final sem grades haven't come up yet). Received a 3.01 Overall GPA and 2.8 bcp during undergrad. I took my DAT on August 22, 2012 with these scores:

PAT 22
QR 19
RC 19
Bio 17 🙁(((
GC 20
OC 24
TS 19
AA 20

I just talked with UOP and they said that they want me to retake the DAT bc of the 17 in the Bio. UOP is definitely on the top of my list but would others chime in with their thoughts on that Bio score, which I'm very disappointed about bc I received a 21 and 22 on previous attempts, and maybe past experiences of people being accepted to UOP or others schools? I would like to stay in CA if possible but any recommendations on which schools to apply to with my stats would be GREATLY appreciated. This is my 4th attempt applying...since 2010. I do feel a little bit discouraged knowing that I might need to retake it for the 4th time. Thanks in advance!!

Well, with a TS score of 10, I'd say your chances are nonexistent.

Is the TS a typo? It doesn't coorelate to any of the other scores.

I am sure TS is a typo. OP meant to say 20.

sorry I meant 19 TS
