mistyr18 Posted December 14, 2017 Report Share Posted December 14, 2017 I am trying to decide whether I should retake the DAT. I have a 3.85 GPA and will be applying to Dalhousie. My scores are not bad but not great. I am concerned that my Bio score is too low for admissions. Any feedback would be appreciated.

longteethgriffy Posted December 14, 2017 Report Share Posted December 14, 2017 I’d say if you haven’t yet applied then you should for sure go for it. Not saying your DAT scores are bad but if you have the opportunity, why not try and raise them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluejay14 Posted December 14, 2017 Report Share Posted December 14, 2017 was wondering this as well. Will be applying next year to uwo with a 90-91ish and to toronto with a 3.92-3.94ish AA:22 PAT: 19 RC: 20 Im scared the PAT might really weigh me down for UofT. thoughts?

Applying this year to western with 91-92 and toronto with 3.9 hopefully 3.95+ after dropping lowest year. AA: 21 RC: 21 PAT: 18 It was my first time taking the DAT and PAT really got me in terms of timing. Will probably have to rewrite next year but hopefully then I'll have more time to better prepare.

MT_93 Posted December 15, 2017 Report Share Posted December 15, 2017 If you re-write, I'd consider doing the MDT. It'll open up another great door at the UofA, even if you screw up sciences you'd still be okay. If there is potential to do significantly better, then I don't see why not. You are only improving your shot and every penny you spend on DAT material/exam is an investment in your future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lario and Muigi Posted December 15, 2017 Report Share Posted December 15, 2017 Wow. Some of you guys have GREAT DAT scores and phenomenal GPAs. Could any of you guys share how you guys managed to study during school AND do well on the DAT? For me it is either one or the other Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
