No-Show to DAT exam day

Members do not see this ad.

I am scheduled to take the exam, and its already past the deadline to reschedule. I won't be able to show up to the exam. Will they send anything to the dental schools regarding the fact that I didn't show up. Does it even count as an attempt ?

Also how long do I have to wait to schedule another exam ? Its 90 days for those who have to retake it , but how long for those who don't show up ?

Thanx everyone .

Basically you forfeit the money you paid to register for taking the test.

It does not count as an attempt. You do not have to wait 90 days. But you do have re-register and pay.

Dental schools will not know this happened. Its like this never happened. Its like nothing. People at ADA will enjoy the extra money you have to pay. Thats all.

How long do you have to reschedule it before your test day?

I think 2 days.

I did that because I was extremely ill the night before and nothing happened. I have to just reapply and pay again 🙂

Best of luck!!

yeah I just went through the whole process to set up another date. It just hurts to have to pay hundreds of dollars again. Bummer
