I took the DAT in August of 2018. If I was planning to apply in the next cycle for the summer of 2020 would this score still be valid? It says they are only good for 2 years.
Thanks!
 
Where does it say the scores are valid for only 2 years? I always thought it was 3 years. For example I took my first DAT 2015 and that expired when i wanted to apply in 2018.
 
I'd also like to know. I took mine in May 2018 and I'm hoping it'll be valid for one more cycle. I think it does depend on the school, but it's annoying it's only valid for short an amount of time.

Every dental school has a different expiration date. You can check this by buying “ADEA Dental Explorer”. You can find that information there along with a lot other useful information for each dental school.
