So I'm planning on taking the DAT's this summer and I was wondering if I should take Microbiology while studying for the DATs. I don't necessarily need to take it this summer, I could take it this fall but I wanted to raise my science GPA before I apply. Would it make a difference?

I am also applying this summer. If you don't have to take anything then I wouldn't, just concentrate on killing the DAT. I'm in a different boat, I have to take 2 summer courses and my DAT so I will be hurting until it's all over.
 
I am not sure I understand your question. If you take microbio this summer you won't raise your sGPA until after grades are in. Are you saying you would wait to apply until after summer classes are over? That is a long time to wait to get your application in just to add a few credits to your GPA.
