I applied last July (9schools) but took my DAT on Sept 1st and didnt get any interviews
I have about 60 shadowing hours and other great extra curricular on my resume

THIS CYCLE
I am about to e-submit my application in few days and taking DAT for second time on Jul 31st

Feel free to ask me any questions or give me any advise for this cyle.
I am open to any criticism 😉
Do you think i should send in my old DAT scores before i take DAT again?
Do you think July 31 is the right time? if not then should i take the test earlier? or later?

Perhaps adding some more shadowing hours would help. I believe the minimum is 30hrs. So, if you have the option of doing some more shadowing, I suggest you do it.

You really don't have an option. ADA will report both of your scores. For AADSAS, you can fill in your old scores, and also select the option that shows you have already scheduled a retake.
Do you think July 31 is the right time? if not then should i take the test earlier? or later?

The right time to take the DAT is when you're ready. Do you think July 13th gives you enough time to prepare for the exam? If yes, then I don't see why you should change that date.

Good Luck👍

Thanks for your input. Thats exactly what i am planning to do. I wish I had higher RC score...then i would have been in DS now.

Does anyone know if any school takes higher score of each section for multiple DAT rather than considering each tests separately?

It depends on your school that you're applying to. Some of them take the highest while others take the most recent. I believe there was a thread by doc toothache on it.

Most schools are looking for improvements.
