i didn't get into a dental school last year so i retook the DATs. my science scores increased, but my QR and Comp Reading scores went down. do you think i need to retake the DATs again?

Also, do they send out all of your DATs scores or just the most recent one?

Old Scores:

Your new scores are fine. Don't retake. They will send out a score report with both sets of scores on it. So they will see both attempts and your improvements. Some schools only take into consideration the most recent scores
