This year I am waitlisted at one school and am getting ready to reapply for the next cycle. I don't know if I should take one year or two years off because I don't feel that my application has improved significantly since the last time I applied. Here's my stats gpa 3.5 science gpa 3.3 dat 17. Every school I called told me that I should retake my dat and take more classes. As a graduating senior, I only have one more semester to improve my gpa before I apply in May. What do you guys think??? Thanks!

I think many people will agree with me when I say don't worry about your gpa and just kill the DAT and you will get in.

GOOD LUCK
 
Yup, I agree with everyone. Your gpa is pretty solid. Improve your DAT and you should have a change.
 
Yeah, the beauty with the DAT is technically you can go from a 17 to a 23 in just one day.

An impossible thing to do with GPA. So I guess you’re in luck this way.
