I have two interviews so far for dental schools but one school requested I retake it. Should i notify all schools that I am retaking it? Ill be taking the test end of nov or first week of dec?

What do u think
 
This is a tricky one... This is my suggestion of what I would do in this situation, please note that this is just my opinion.

I would say notify them all that you will be re-taking to avoid looking sneeky. (You don't want them to find out that you re-took it 'behind their backs', or looking like you don't want them to see the new score)

Also, for the re-take, take it as soon as possible. You want them to see your score before Dec. 1. Try to get in asap.
 
It depends on what your score is. I would say that if it is not too low, you shouldn't retake it and hope for more interviews. I mean if you got interviews with your current score, that means there is something to like here. If score is horribly low, then I guess you don't have a choice 👍
