Question about sending scores to schools

I tried to look up and see if anyone has already asked this question but with no success. I took the DAT back in June and did ok with an average of 18. I already have 2 interviews but 4 schools want me to retake the DAT. I haven't heard from any others. Should I only send the retake scores to these four schools and if I do better pay for the rest of the schools to get them? Or is it wrong to not send it too them? I don't want the schools that I have interviews to get my new scores unless they are better which I could just pay for to be sent to them. Any honest feed back would be appreciated. Thank you

How do you know the other schools want you to re-take? Did they contact you and tell you this specifically? Also which schools? Thanks.

I got a letter from case and I called UNLV and a not so nice lady let me know my app was on hold until I retook the DAT. The other two schools are VCU and Nebraska which actually haven't told me to retake it but I applied early and havn't heard from either while others are getting interviews. But you didn't answer my questions should I send my scores to all of my schools or just to these 4? Thanks for any info you can give.

I think the DAT sytem will let your previously designated schools that you have retaken the DAT any way. You may as well send it to them since they are going to know that you retook it...without knowing your grade. I would call the adea and ask them about the whole procedure.
