hi
i want to hear what you would do if you were in my shoes.
I want to apply as soon as possible.
But i am taking a summer course now which ends at the end of June that will likely bring my gpa up.
I've taken the dat before but know for sure it is not good enough thus will be retaking at the end of june.
should I wait until the end of june after I retake the dat and the summer course ends to apply?
Or just apply on june 3rd with my current dat score?
my sGPA, cGPA, BCP GPA is slightly below avg w DAT score w 19AA but have a 17for bio...
would really appreciate your thoughts.
am really stressed out...

I think you would be fine even if you apply in July

any other thoughts?

Wait until you have a new DAT score and the summer course is completed. July is still considered relatively early so you won't be at a disadvantage.

Fill out your AADSAS application in June and get everything done... Then, as soon as the grades are posted for your class, submit the transcript matching form for your transcript to be sent, then submit your application.

By that time, you should be taking your DAT soon... your scores should be updated onto your application before they even process your transcript. At the latest, you'll be sent out in early July. Last year, July 6th was the "second batch" of applications... So, you would still be VERY EARLY.

Long story short (even though I don't understand how one class would bring your GPA up that much) wait until the new grades are in.
