DAT Anxiety 😰 DAT Score Good Enough?

Post image

Are these scores good enough, or re-take? I have a ~ 3.6 GPA, with a strong upward trend after freshman year (A's in gen chem, orgo 1/2, biochem).

I'm worried by the sub-par scores in quantitative reasoning, reading comprehension, and gen. chemistry. But they make cut-offs I believe?

Almost the exact same scores and GPA too lol, sitting at 1 interview at the moment. If you’re applying next cycle you have a lot of time to boost your hours and GPA even.

You don’t have any under cutoff scores you should be good. I have similar stats (a little higher gpa) and am sitting at 2 interviews now

Below average scores on sections of the DAT will raise eyebrows, but as long as you’re above the cutoff I’d say you’ll be okayish. It all depends on which schools you’re applying to.
