I projected myself to get a 30 on my DAT...it didn't happen. Long story short, only you can get yourself into D-school...work hard and good things will happen.
 
Alright I understand that argument, but can we just say that is what i get just for reference sake?

All i am trying to ask is if there is a chance with the grades I have gotten and also my question regarding ECS...
