Hey guys,
I took the DAT last weekend and am kind of unsure of my scores. Here they are:

PAT 19
QR 18
RC 17
Bio 18
GC 19
OC 19
TS 19
AA 18

I'm a little disappointed with the reading and math score b/c I had been scoring so high on my practice tests. But hopefully these scores are good enough. My science GPA is 3.34 and my overall GPA is 3.6. What do you guys thinks?

I think it's good enough to get you several interview invites as long as you apply to the right ones. (your state schools + privates with avg 19/3.5)

I agree with the above poster. I also love how your scores are very very consistent.

cheers!

Yeah, those scores are definitely consistent! 🙂 I'm sure that'll be in your favor. Good job.

nice scores!

socloseithurts, what materials did you use to prepare you for the DAT? what were your scores on practice tests?

Also, how was Biology?

Thanks =)

how was the QR?

i mainly used Kaplan and Topscore. However, I felt like it was so useless when it came to biology. I think it helped for gen chem and orgo, which is why my scores were so high. but NOTHING i studied for bio was on the test. and my reading was low because I either had an off day for reading or the Kaplan reading is horrible, don't really know which one. as for math, i think i just got really flustered, but know I could have done better.

anyways, thanks for the encouragement and positive feedback. good luck everyone!

did u run out of time on RC on real test? what about practice tests?

 

[socloseithurts]

for the RC, i was always able to answer the questions on time. I felt like I could use more time and was used to rushing myself, but in general, it wasn't too bad.
