Hello I just took my DAT today and was wondering if I should retake my DAT.
I got
PAT: 23
Bio: 20
Gchem: 25
Ochem: 21
RC: 18
QR: 18
TS:23
AA:21

I have two 18s 🙁 I heard that dental school look carefully on your RC score and my RC score is pretty bad. Should I consider retaking my DAT?

No.

I think you can go around RC if English is your 2nd language. Even if it isn't, other sections scores will outweigh it. Only once you see the beast. Don't see it twice!

Your scores are solid, and that QR is fine. The RC is definitely low, and schools do look at that, but your other scores are pretty strong. If I were you I would not retake because overall these scores still look good.
