Hey everyone I wanted to know whether or not I should apply this cycle? I was originally not planning on applying. I just got into a Masters program- BMS at wayne state, so I was going to pursue that but I took my DAT earlier this week and my scores were as follows:

PAT: 22
QR: 20
RC: 20
Bio: 21
GC: 26
OC: 21
TS:22
AA: 22

my cumulative GPA is 3.11

Please give me advice on what to do. I am looking to apply to Detroit Mercy and Umich since those would be my in state schools. But don't know which out of state schools. Should I even think about applying with my stats?
 
I think your stats are good enough. Why don't you apply? Congrats on your DAT, they are solid scores!
 
Why would it be too late? Interviews are barely starting.
 
Apply. GPA is low, so apply broadly to private and public schools. You may get some pre December interviews, but don't be surprised if most interviews come after December.

Whats your sciGPA like? Assuming its less than or equal to you cumGPA, Id say you shouldnt waste your time. Your DAT is great but it can't compensate for a GPA that is too low. Having said that, no one knows your app better than you do so if you think you have a chance then go ahead apply especially if money isnt an issue.
 
3.1 22/22 mid-August isn't late and not a total loss. sGPA >= 3?

But since you hadn't planned on applying, what condition is the rest of your app? It's not a good time to just be starting the whole process. Letters? Statement?
