I like how you added the RC score in your quote, lol. Are you two just trying to figure out which one between you two did better? I can think of two better ways to figure out which score is better than asking people to figure it out for you. The first is to average all the scores you received. That probably won't give you the best result as the DAT is on a bell curve. If you were supplied with percentages along with your scores as with the American DAT, I would average those. Or you can just wait and see which person gets in to more dental schools, and let that answer the question

i was just wondering if US schools do average scores like that or if they weigh AA/PA/Carv differently
