Members don't see this ad.

so im scheduled to take dat on aug 11. but ive been distracted so im thinking of pushing it back. im unsure of pushing it back one week or two. would the end of august be too late? i have a 3.5 and im great at taking tests so if i do well then a later date will be ok??????

also do you think people that complete their app. later can get moved up in the pile of applications if their numbers are higher and more competitve?

Take it when you are ready. Take the exam within the month of August. You are in good shape if you have submitted your application. It takes 4-6 for application processing and 1-2 for DAT score processing.

I think you have until 48 hours before your test to reschedule (I'm not positive though... might want to check on that). Try to study as much as you can until then and see if you still don't feel comfortable. I was thinking about pushing my test date back another week too, but I think I'll be okay (I hope... I'm taking it this Sunday). If you don't feel comfortable, I think pushing back a week might be okay but I'm not sure... Have you submitted your application yet?

ive submitted but my letters dont go out until scores come in...i think i wont reschedule until closer to date that way i will study more...might get relaxed if i move it back now!

i'm totally in the same shoes (take it aug 11th too!) I figure its good to have a safety net, but if I count on taking it aug11th ill be way more motivated.
Yay for the procrastinators out there!

I'm taking it the 10 and thinking of rescheduling but I won't decide that until aug 1 so I can see how far I get and where I am at in august

I have pushed the test back 4 times and I cancelled an exam.

Take my advice, DONT PUSH IT BACK!

Just take it now and get it done with.

Whenever I push it back, I get lazy and stop studying and fall out of the rhythm.
