🙁Hi how much of a longshot do I have with getting in with a 14 PAT i actually went down from a 16 last time to 14 and my Q.R. went from 14 to 16. Damn it cant be on the same test. Do they consider your scores last year like possibly my PAT. I've stayed the same in my AA though. I don't know went wrong, but i feel really down about it, esp with this new limit of 3 times. Anyone in the same boat? MY AA was 17. I honestly studied a lot this time and before. I went in feeling really prepared, and was confident through out the test. WTF happened. I am hard working in school, I am not a slacker , but I just dont do standardized tests well. Anyone get in last year with these type of scores. Also I am involved in some major volunteer work this year associated with dentistry. 🙁 Anyone have any advice on how they got in with these type of scores or know of anyone and their profile.
Thanks

It sucks to study harder and to have it fall apart right in front of your face. I understood everything and did so good on practice exams.
I have a 3.4 gpa
im volunteering right now 5 days a week at a dental place
do you think there are any schools out there that can look at both scores, and take the highest of the both, such as a higher pat the 1st time.
I hate this limit thing. Yeah I feel lost, and like a loser, I dont know what I am going to do anymore. Really, these Dental Admissions people should look beyond the numbers and to students who are just so damn dedicated to learning and the field. Tests dont tell you everything def not about your work ethic, it might not reflect......ooooohhhhhhhhhhhhh trying to hang in......
