I just took DAT today. I totally messed up RC, and got 16. (The practice score range was 18-21. I'm not really sure what happened..)
The other sections and the overall scores are okay, but should I still retake the DAT?
It seems to be said that RC is the most important section, but I wonder if it will still be difficult to get in if I apply broadly.
Any advice would be appreciated
