Okay so, I plan on retaking my DAT I think. The reason is because I don't think my scores are as competitive for Texas dental schools, which is where I am aiming for.

My scores are

PAT: 17
QR: 19
GC: 20
BIO: 20
OC: 23
RC: 20

AA:20
TS: 21

Does anyone know what my chances are for Texas school? I mean, i have an average GPA to get into Texas also.. With a 3.6.

If I plan on retaking, how many weeks should I give myself? I am thinking about retaking it next summer before I apply or during the Christmas Break.

I fall within the average for GPA and DAT. I noticed that not many people gets accepted with a 17 on perceptual thought.. Out of 200 applied. 20 got in.

Where are these two numbers coming from?

Oops. I didn't really look at it, but it was a quick estimate.

They only accept just a few people with 19's I don't see many people on this forum having a 20 and getting accepted ?

Nearly half of matriculants have a 19 or below.
