I've just recieved a email from one of the schools that I've applied to saying 'on hold for dat score'
I got a pretty good score on the academic but a 15 on the pat. When I called the school they told me that it would be better to retake on nov for that pat score, especially since I'm a non resident for that school
They told me it doesn't mean that I'm yet denied but I'm thinking nov to retake might be to late...🙁
Has anybody else been in this same position?..
 
Every school is has a different view on the DAT. Some weight the PAT heavily and others don't. I believe UoP is one that does weight it heavily. You should contact all the school's to which you applied and find out from them. You may come across a few that don't look at the PAT. I believe a Nov retake may be too late just depends on the school. Good Luck!!
