hello!
i am scheduled to take DAT on 7/14 which is this saturday
and I thought i 'm not really ready to take the exam
so i want to reschedule it.
i'm debating between 21st or 30th
bc i have a biochem test on 23rd and final on 25th-26th
so those two dates are only my choices...
i want to take on 30th but it seems a little too late
what do you guys think????
thanx!

I was scheduled to take my test on July 12th, but called this morning and rescheduled it for Aug. 24th. So, no I don't think it is too late. I have spoken to a few admissions people and all of them have told me that as long as you have your AADSAS in early, you can take your DAT at the end of the summer. Since you have to wait 3 months to retake it, it's in your benefit to study more and harder and do well ONCE than have to retake it. Either way, retaking at this point is going to put you in the 'pool' late.
I know for a fact that UMD doesn't even LOOK at applications until Sept 1st, so personally I'm studying my butt off til Aug 24th and faxing my scores!!

Good Luck!
