sGPA vs. TS

Do you think a higher TS makes up for a lesser sGPA? I have a TS of 23 and havn't calculated my sGPA but it is probably around 3.1-3.2. Will adcoms hopefully look past this number due to DAT performance?

They don't look past anything, but it is like a balance/scale. You need something to make up for the lack of sGPA.

Maybe, depends on the school tho, If they ask you about your low science GPA during your interview you can point out your higher TS DAT score. I wouldn't bring it up otherwise.

Some schools accept students with a slightly lower GPA and a higher DAT score, and some schools do the opposite, If I were you I would apply to around 15 schools.

Good Luck!
