i am a junior now and i just took my DAT this summer, got 21/21 on it, should i retake it again? and i won't be applying to dental school 'til nx august, will my score "out of date" when i apply it next yr? thanx😕
 
I agree, don't take it again unless your GPA is really low, or you want to get into Harvard, UCSF, or UW. Even then, you'd probably have a good shot with a 21/21 with the right ECs.

dental schools will take DAT scores up to 3 years old, some will only use 2 year old DAT scores, but all in all, you'll be fine!

How did you study for the DAT?
I need some pointers.
 
i just borrowed those kaplan review materials from ppl who took the course before. the flash cards from kaplan review helps a lot.

i also bought that computerized DAT review thingy, it's actually harder than the real DAT...



and by the strength god gave me🙂
