Okay here's my situation I'm taking the dat soon. But i don't know if i should apply now or wait until my dat scores. I'm thinking like this: if i well on the dat then i'll apply to about 5 schools. If i somehow screw up, I'll apply to more schools. But is waiting for about another 2 weeks going to hurt me that much?

Thanks for your help.

Is the cost of applying to more schools an issue? How many more schools would apply to if you did badly?

i would probably apply to about 4-5 more just to be sure. Its not an issue, but i rather not waste money you know what i mean.

I would just apply NOW to those 4-5 schools that you have in mind. Then, if you do bad, apply to 5 more schools. You can always add more schools that you want to apply to but, you can't delete. Thats what I'd do...

I understand completely but you don’t want to lessen your chances of getting in by applying late. I would suggest applying to those 4-5 schools now so everything is ready and the schools are only waiting on your DAT scores. That’s what I did.

I also had a question about aadsas. They want us to fill in classes that we are going to take for the spring 06 semester. What if we don't know what we're going to take ...should i just fill it up with classes i think i might take?
