Need some advise

Hey guys,

I know it is really late to take the DAT for 2007 admission. But I havent taken mine yet due to course work and some other exam conflicts at my quarter system school where everything move crazy.

I have submitted my AADSAS on first week of september 2006. I have more than enough predental volunetter/ shadowing experience. I have worked as a dental assistent in a private dental practice. Also, I was Biomedical engineering before but I changed it to physical sciences (and minoring in biological sciences) since I have decided to go to dental school. I have been taking quarter terms (10 weeks) with credits ranging from 14.5 to 21. AADSAS has calculated my GPAs and the numbers are as follows:

Cumulative: 3.81 / 4.00
BCP 3.76/4.00

Also, I have mentioned in my application that I will be taking my DAT in oct 2006 but wasnt been able to take it. So now, I am planning to take it during third week of november and surely before thanksgiving.

What do you all think about this situation? Do I need to inform dental school about my DAT situation? Any other advise in terms of increasing my chances for dental admission in 2007.

Every bit of advise helps.

Thanks in advance.

Obviously try to take it as soon as possible however, dont compromise a higher DAT by taking it to quick.
also people have been interviewing already so youre not going to be in the the first batch of applicants anyways. you can get and schedual interviews even without your DAT score. so good luck and study hard!
