I converted my scores and got a 18AA 20TS (18BIO 20GC 21OC) 19PAT 18RC and 13QR š This is my first time taking DAT. I only had 2 months to really study due to personal reasons (not trying to make excuses) and couldnāt finish studying for QR. But I gave it my best despite my circumstances!
I feel that I have a well rounded application and have been told Iām a strong applicant by my advisors/mentors/professors (wellā¦that was prior to taking the DATš). I also have a masters (3.8gpa w/ full tuition scholarship), and 2 undergrad degrees in bio and chem (3.49 gpa bc I had rough 1st semester but retook and got As). I have done 3 research internships (I even contributed to 2 Nature publications!), honors in biology, dental assistant, volunteering, some leadership, lots of shadowing, etc.
I know my score is low and itās late within the cycle, but I already submitted 2 apps early July and now Iām not sure what to do. Iāve seen people get in with low scores so I know itās not impossible. But Ive also heard schools can screen you out if you donāt score well in a section? I just feel like something has to give at this point :/
