My first DAT is on August 1st 2009 but I just got this email 😵

Did same thing happen to any of you?

This is hilarious
make sure you call them
they might have mistaken your file with someone else

 

[DrTootle]

that's awesome!

 

[fsddsms]

But don't they usually stop answering your phone and email since thousands of people are trying to contact them and they are too busy to do that?

And I got msg from one of a student from GMU (my undergraduate school) saying that his name is also Joon. Maybe that's why VCU got confused?

But then aren't they supposed to check AADSAS number and Social security number to make sure it's the right person?

I know that I should contact VCU to fix this but I am worried that this will cause them to push my file all the way to the corner.

When I was in high school, I took SAT1 three times but I recieved SAT 2 world history score instead of my third SAT score and it said I got perfect 800/800 on SAT 2 world history. I never took SAT2 world history and I almost failed that class so my history teacher was so proud of me XD.

Wow that is so weird! Both about the DAT and your SAT. what did you end up doing for the SAT score?

But anyway - yes, definitely contact them! Who knows, what if the score they got mixed up with yours was really low? You don't want to risk that...

I wonder if its the same Joon Kim who took the SAT and now applied to VCU, just like you????

If it's the same Joon Kim who took SAT world history and got 800/800, I am happy 😀

but if it's the same Joon Kim whoo took DAT and got rejected last year, then I am not

I just got a reply.
"Dear Mr. Kim,
The ADA site that reports DAT scores lists a DAT score in the name of Joon Kim taken 6/14/2006. The DAT does not use your AADSAS number as an identifier. Instead they use another ID #. It is not uncommon to have several people with the same name. Thank you for notifying us of the DAT date. Please fax your DAT scores to us when completed "

After I got this email, I called again and made sure that everything is ok~
haha~~

Now I can finally prepare for my 1st DAT 🙂 it's tomorrow 😀
