Not yet, they should be released within the next 2 weeks though

I was expecting them to come this morning, they usually come out after 6 weeks on the Tuesday. I wonder if due to COVID it will be closer to the 8 week mark.

I saw somewhere that the results were delayed by 2 weeks because of COVID. I don't remember where I read that though.

It's been 7 weeks... Just run the scantrons thru the machines and give us the scores.

[Hokage777]

Are there any updates? It's been 8 weeks now

[KamehameHaaaaa]

I've been calling the CDA reception at 613-523-1770 and got them to answer once. They've been shutting the phone now though... Can't get past 2 to 3 rings. 

[KamehameHaaaaa]

Theyre out!

Hi All- what are your thoughts on these scores? Wrote Feb 2020

MDT- 29

PAT- 25

RC-20

-Bio & Chem 18

 

Pretty bummed about my science scores. 4.0 GPA, graduate degree, several published papers. Would you re-write to improve the science scores?

[KamehameHaaaaa]

Depends on the schools you're gunning for. You seem competitive for UofA and UofT, but may be disqualified from Western. McGill is doable, UBC is doable... I don't know about the rest. 

Killer score btw! I'd just run it this cycle with it considering your GPA + graduate degree!

Give it a go this cycle. Your PAT could offset your AA for UofT. If you want to be on the safe side and you can commit again, write the Nov DAT. 

[Unknown1234]

Thanks all! Yeah I'll give it some thought, may give it a go again in Nov., glad I don't have to do carving again! I think the remainder of my application should be quite strong. Looking at Dal as I will be OOP for other schools but may give UofA a go as well. 

Best of luck to anyone else in the process of applying!

19 RC

21 bio

20 chem 

21 PAT 

19 MDT 

4.0 GPA, graduate degree and some dental research experience/volunteering (with a paper being reviewed for publication currently - fingers crossed), plenty of volunteering unrelated to dentistry. 

This was my first time writing the DAT - Wondering if I should retake in November? Any suggestions?

Your DAT score is average for acceptances and you have a really good GPA.  I think you have a good shot at UofT and wherever else your in province school is. McGill is also doable with your GPA! UWO might be iffy bc of your RC mark but you still have a shot bc you hit their average for RC.
