Too Late DAT

Dear folks,

With my poor RC score, I am still thinking of retake.

(RC-16, Science-21, PAT-20, AA-20
with 3.90/3.95 sci/overall GPA)

If I take it on November 5th, is the new score still considered for schools ?

Because my top choice is Columbia and Upenn,
I believe I need to raise my RC and AA more.

However, I doubt if it is too late for being considered.

Plz give your opinion, veterans.

If I were you I would call Columbia and tell the head of admissions your situation. You have an amazing GPA, but Columbia seems to look at DAT way more than GPA (Average DAT >22, average GPA <3.5).

IMO you would walk into pretty much any school, but Harvard and Columbia might be trickier.

if you havnt heard back from them yet maybe its because your file is still under review? i say that because i got a 15 on RC and have interviews at both Penn and Columbia, so stay positive! good luck!
