They'll send out an e-mail to everyone saying you can access it. If you're feeling really keen, you can log-in to the student download section around early December to maybe catch the results a day before they send out their mass e-mail telling everyone the DAT transcripts are available for download.

About 2 more weeks!!! The anxiety! What are y'all doing to keep your mind off waiting?

I've been trying to muster up the energy to prepare for the final I have coming in about a week. One habit I picked up while studying for the DAT was to browse /r/premed and /r/MCAT for their memes like the one below so that's somewhat kept my mind off of waiting.

Anyone know when the Nov 2017 scores came out. My friend said about 1 month after he wrote (they quoted 6-8 weeks but if was much less time he said).

I read on the november 2017 DAT forum that the scanner cannot read your sheet if you circle the same answer in an entire vertical column. I ran out of time in both the PAT and RC sections and circled the same letter for an entire column in both sections. Im freaking out now, because that doesn't make sense that the scanner cant read the same letter, nowhere does it say in any official rules that you can't do this. PLEASE EXPLAIN SOMEONE

I wouldn't freak out too much, I am almost certain there is a hand scoring option that you can request. If your score comes back and it is weird because of what you mentioned, i'd do a "hand scoring" request - which I think you can do retroactively. Then if someone hand scores it, it shouldn't be an issue.

Hey also when do the scores come out, it says on the CDA website that it takes 8 weeks, but people in canada said they got their scores the second week of december? 

[jellybellytelly]

Based on previous years, it will most likely be out next Tuesday! 

[stealth]

Any news anyone? The anticipation is killing me. Whoever get's their score please post on here asap so we can know they are on the way

[canadianman]

The last two years, it was released around the 12-13th. Just a few more days

Haha couldn't agree more. I honestly stopped looking at these forums and tried finding other ways to get my mind off these things while waiting for school decisions

[westcoastbestcoast]

what time of day do the scores generally get released? haha

[dent2O19]

I can't wait any longer!!!

[westcoastbestcoast]

Pretty sure they're getting uploaded. On the student download page you can't even check "DAT Transcript" whereas yesterday you could. Almost here!

[jellybellytelly]

Goodluck guys!!!!!!! <3 

[stealth]

Tomorrow morning they will be coming out I believe. If history repeats itself, today was the day they were uploaded and they should be live tomorrow morning.

Okay so about 10 minutes ago I was able to see my transcript for a brief moment but it looks like they took it down again

Right now you are able to select "DAT Transcript" option on Student Download page but can't access the transcript.....

 

Really hope that was not my actual transcript since the scores were waaaay different from what I've imagined.... but it had my name and everything so it looks like I'm stuck with those scores

How much longer do you think until they email us? I also saw that the DAT Transcript option was now available, but it doesn't allow me to log in...
