First time I took the DAT:

I got a 18AA/17TS/15 PAT:
4 interviews => three rejections and a waitlist

New scores:
18AA/19TS/16 PAT
We'll see what happens in round two.

I think these scores should be enough to get me into a school, mainly somewhere in Texas.

B.S. Biology, Health minor
GPA: 3.85
sGPA: 3.76

What did you get on your RC score?

I hope you get in this time around. There is quite some improvement on your TS section.

Nice job. Those should get you in to a TX school. Best of luck this round.

What did you get on your RC score?

I ended up with a 19 this time, I got a 24 the first time. Some passage about ethical dilemma and personal preservation screwed me over, since I ran out of time. Every paragraph was a new key term that was so close to the definition of the term before it, it was hard to remember. Had it been another scientific passage, I would have been fine. The other two passages were about Magnesium deficiency and it's link to cardio diseases and the importance of epithelial-mesenchymal interactions in physiology.

Thanks for the support jigabodo and jcdent, u guys are great.

Sounds like that ethical passage screws most people. Well, congrats on the improvement and good luck on your run this time.

What schools did you apply to?

 

[mantraman1010]

My interviews were from UT Houston, UT San Antonio, Baylor, and NYU. I am currently waitlisted at NYU. I think my TS score was the greatest inhibitor of me not getting in the first time.
