I have a pretty high DAT score but I have the same personal problem as one of the users on here. I want to aim for a perfect score for my own satisfaction. So I'm thinking about retaking it after acceptance. Can they reject me if I score lower due to unforeseen contingencies after acceptance?

Thanks. 🙂

Logically no. Besides, chances are that you're going to ace the DAT with such persevering effort as told here.👍

Some schools will state that they will only take the most recent score. so technically if you blow the exam the second time around they could base your application off of that score, and you could be rejected.

but since you want to take it after an acceptance, and incase you blow it, i dont think they can do anything about it.

Truthfully I wouldn't take the chance... if you have great scores and are confident you can get into the school you want to, I wouldn't mess around or pay $175 just to prove to yourself you can get a perfect score. Most likely the schools can't do anything about it, but seems like a silly chance to take. If you're die-hard about it, I'd wait until wayy after the cycle (like next May) to prove your point.
 
if you go through with it, let us know how you end up doing!!

btw, what are your scores now?
 
Geez, thats cool that you got that much drive and motivation! I would say who cares man, just go get a girlfriend, and if you have one go spend some time with her! hahha
