Hi everyone!
I am planning on submitting through aadsas within the first week that it opens.
I already have a DAT score, albeit a weak one (20 aa, 17 pat). I plan on retaking the DAT, but in mid july.

So my question is: is it still wise to submit early with my average scores and just wait to update my app with the (hopefully) better scores? Or should i wait to submit everything at once after taking it again in july?
I figured submitting it the week of June 1 would at least put me at the top of the pile and since most schools don't start review til august anyway, the old scores wouldn't even be considered by then.

thoughts?

I suggest, apply early since you already have DAT AA20(not bad).

You do not have average score, you have above average score. 20AA is still a respectable score.

You should apply in june asap, I wouldn't even mention you are planning to retake... just do the retake and update AADSAS afterwards.
