Hi everyone, I plan to be applying through TMDSAS for the 2021 cycle and was hoping people could provide some advice on whether I should retake or not. I recently showed my advisor my scores and she recommended I retake, but I've also seen people say that taking the second time could be risky due to some schools just looking at the most recent scores and that some people end up doing worse their second time around. I also see that my gpa and DAT are both slightly below the matriculants for Texas school's average, and I go to TAMU where I know people also applying my cycle are very competitive. Definitely have been stressing a lot about what I should do next so any advice is greatly appreciated.
Took my DAT end of this summer ended up with these scores:
PAT:19 QR:21 RC:21 Bio:19 GC:19 OC:22 TS:20 AA:20
My ogpa is at 3.61 right now hopefully I can bump it a bit higher after this semester, sgpa around 3.3
Volunteering and shadowing hours are both around 100, am consistently doing research and have a part time job, leadership is slightly lacking
(Currently a junior rn)
