up123 Posted December 18, 2012 Report Posted December 18, 2012 Hi, I just wrote my Dat this november and got the following 21 bio. 22 chem. 22 TS 21 AA 19 RC 18 PAT Is the RC score competitive for western and would it and the PAT score be a little on the low side? Would it be better for me to rewrite? Thanks a lot for any advice
Parachute Posted December 20, 2012 Report Posted December 20, 2012 I have very similar scores! AA 21 PAT 18 RC 21 I think the 18 is pretty low for UfT. Everyone I know who got in (2 years ago) had at least 21. So I’m definitely thinking of re-writing. But this is my first time applying so I’m not too sure myself. Would you mind sharing your GPA? I think if your GPA’s amazing, then you’d definitely have a shot!

Would it be better for me to rewrite? Thanks a lot for any advice RC should be ok for western but PAT might be on a little low side for U of T oh how I hated those PAT questions! I would recommend you to rewrite to improve your PAT score but other than that this is a great DAT score! Good luck!
up123 Posted December 27, 2012 Author Report Posted December 27, 2012 heyy Parachute! My gpa should be around a 3.92. I really have no idea how these scores work and all the factors that come into play !
Parachute Posted January 6, 2013 Report Posted January 6, 2013 heyy Parachute! My gpa should be around a 3.92. I really have no idea how these scores work and all the factors that come into play ! That's pretty competitive for UfT! I think you have a chance at getting an interview! But I'm in the same boat as you so my judgement is as good as your's.
zeroNINE Posted January 8, 2013 Report Posted January 8, 2013 There's a good chance you will get an interview because of your GPA. Start practicing as soon as you get the invite.
up123 Posted January 9, 2013 Author Report Posted January 9, 2013 thanks for all the votes of confidence! and goodluck !

jumpergirl Posted February 13, 2013 Report Posted February 13, 2013 Hey guys, need some advice..... I'm contemplating whether or not to write my DAT again this Feb, I am currently registered to write it, but my classes this term are much more demanding. My 2 yr average if my marks stay consistent will be 89%. I'm IP for USask. My DAT scores are as follows: RC-22 AA-21 PAT-20 MDT-15 Is it worth it for me to rewrite or better to spend time on marks.. Thanks in advance for all the advice and support

Thanks in advance for all the advice and support There is actually a very simple solution! Schools won't accept the Feb DAT, so let this application cycle play out. If you get interviews, awesome. If you don't get interviews (which would be surprising), think about rewriting next November. Honestly, your scores put you in a good position for both IP and OOP interviews, so don't worry too much.

Thanks in advance for all the advice and support In my opinion if you haven't studied for the feb DAT which is in 10 days then perhaps it's best if you focus on your school and get good grades and study in the summer to write the November one.

Jbergs Posted February 13, 2013 Report Posted February 13, 2013 Sask DOES accept Feb DAT scores. Well aren't I a monkey's uncle. Average statistics of class accepted last year: %: 89.43 (min 85.75) RC: 19.88 (min 16) AA: 18.80 (min 16) PAT: 19.60 (min 15) MDT: 17.56 (min 5) You'll get the interview

I concerned with getting IN! Just a little freaked out... ya know??
rommel Posted February 14, 2013 Report Posted February 14, 2013 about yours i don't see why unless the carving is hurting u for those 2 schools but for me would u guys rewrite... i cant see why personally but this is what i have TS 21 AA 21 PAT 21 RC 19 Bio 19 Chem 25
Jbergs Posted February 14, 2013 Report Posted February 14, 2013 LOL I know I'll get the interview.... I concerned with getting IN! Just a little freaked out... ya know?? Ahhhh well that's a whole other ball game! Your stats put you at "upper middle class" with respect to other applicants, so you should just work on killing the interview. The DAT only counts for 15% of your application, and there's no guarantee you'll improve. Bail on the DAT, focus on keeping your marks up.
rommel Posted February 14, 2013 Report Posted February 14, 2013 wait a minute ... are you worried about the SASK stats? if so those scores are irrelevant as averages because they do "Total" of your scores...including PAT, carving, reading and TS i believe so in that case you need form what i was told over 80 to be competitive. As for western I think you are fine as well as TO other than your PAT score.
zeroNINE Posted February 14, 2013 Report Posted February 14, 2013 about yours i don't see why unless the carving is hurting u for those 2 schoolsbut for me would u guys rewrite... i cant see why personally but this is what i have TS 21 AA 21 PAT 21 RC 19 Bio 19 Chem 25 I think for now your RC is good for Western, though the AA is right around the average. Don't worry too much about your PAT too much for UofT. My friend had ~3.9 GPA and 20 PAT, ~20 AA and still got in at UofT. It's all about that interview =)
