I took DAT today
and i didn't get a good score it's way lower than my expectation but i submitted anyway,
and i thought that with my score, i cannot get into any dental school this year, so im thinking to retake the exam during october and submit application before begnning of November,

Do you think this is a good idea?

It's always a good idea to improve your scores!
Sorry it didn't go well for you this time!🙁

What exactly were your scores? Maybe they aren't as bad as you think they are. Also, don't wait until November to submit your app...go ahead and submit it and if you are going to re-take the DAT, just indicate on your app that you will do so.

I'm sorry that it didn't go well. Retaking your DAT is a good idea. Take it when you can and when you are more prepared. Good luck.

what is your score? As 4thMolar already said, it might not be as bad as you think it is. Depends on which school you want to apply, you might have a chance. If I were you, I would submit the application now, and would do retake and don't forget stating you would retake in application.

Retaking is a good idea but applying in November is a BAD idea. You can still apply and indicate that you will be retaking the DAT.

And you should retake it at the end of September, which will be after 90 days.
