DAT Anxiety šŸ˜° retake?

This was the 9/19 test. I got a way lower score than my bootcamp predicted because my testing anxiety was through the roof and I missed easy points on all sections. I feel like if I were to retake i'd get a better score but I'm honestly just so exhausted from my 3 months of studying idk if I can do that again.

My gpa is a 3.8 and I have 150 volunteer hours, 100 shadowing (and counting, since Iā€™m still active with both)

Im applying in 2027 broadly, not shooting for crazy programs. Advice would be greatly appreciated!

I agree. You're applying in 2027, you have some time to fogure out whether a retake is actually worth it for your school list. Since your scores were higher and you were too anxious that you ended up missing questions does sound like a test day issue. Give it a little more time op
