Hi...

can someone give me good advice....should I retake the DAT...?
My DAT Score is a 20
PAT Score 15
Math 15
All other sections I got a 19 and above..
GPA 3.2

(I'm just really worried about the PAT and Math scores..)

what's your opinion..do I have a chance..?

thanks for your help!
 
Some schools may have a problem with the 15 in math. I guess it just depends on the school. I wouldnt worry too much about the 15 in PAT as Ive seen many get in with that score.

I think you should be fine with the schools that dont mind that 15 in math.

I would retake the DAT. For some schools they will not even consider your application if your DAT score is below 16. I know that sure for UCLA. I think having two 15 is too risky. I had 16 on PAT and I could not even get some interviews because of that. I had 21/22/16 and I had 3.43/3.45
 
I had a 16 QR, but my PAT was 19. I have gotten a few acceptances.
 
are you applying for this cycle or next? if it's for the next cycle, i'd definately take it over again.
