Hello everyone. Currently, i have a 3.1 GPA, 3.3 BCP, and a 3.0 Science (math killed me)

I got a 19 on my DAT.. Scored a 24 in bio. 22 in orgo 20 in gen chem, but a 14 in Math!!

I have done a lot of community service for the city of detroit involving raising money for low income homeowners and fixing their homes up.

I have 300 hrs of shadowing

What do you think my odds are of getting in.. or do you think I should retake my DAT :/

A ton of schools will have minimum requirements for scores. Call the schools you are applying to and check. If they allow a 14 in math, I'd say apply but it might be worth scheduling a retake and letting these schools know. You can definitely bring those math scores up and have a solid score.

Most schools usually have 15 minimum or 18 minimum. I know Detroit Mercy has a minimum of 15. so yes, you will have to retake it

Retake, especially with your low GPA.

Retake, but apply anyway. You have a ~22TS, right? That's very good. Keep studying and retake.

Yup a retake is in order, as much as QR gets trashed around, a 19 AA with your stats will not be competitive. You want 21+, great job on the sciences though.
