School list looks good. But really hard to tell anything until you get your DAT score.

List looks fine, you have a good mix of schools in there. As said above, really need a DAT score before finalizing.

Thanks so much for replying to my post! What do you both think I need to shoot for on my DAT, realistically speaking? I know everyone says to do as well as possible, and I am of that same mindset, but I was wondering what kind of score would make me a solid/realistic applicant.

Thanks 😀

20 for solid, 24+ would get you a lot of interviews im guessing.

Thanks! Honestly, I'm not a great test taker, but I'll work my tush off and I think that 20+ is realistic. I'll try to do as well as possible though...hope luck is on my side! 🙂

21+ would be ideal (21 would still be below average at some of those schools you've listed above).

20+ you should be fine. But why stop there? Shoot for the moon, land a scholarship and diversify your bonds. The better your scores, the more doors open to you. Aim high.
