r/dentaladmissiontest

I just got my scores back. I kinda saw it coming, but I was aiming higher since I honestly don't have a lot of ECs. The only ones I have are shadowing, a little volunteering experience, and being in college-based organizations (pre-dental group activities). I'm applying to the next cycle, 2027. I really need you guys' honest opinion on whether I should retry on DAT or just apply to schools with these stats, and which schools might be the best bet in your opinion. I was aiming higher to be competitive, at least in the DAT section, because the rest of my application might be weaker. Please help with any advice!

my dat is in exactly 3 weeks. i haven’t taken all the practice tests yet so far as you can see but i keep getting below average or just average on most of them and im nervous. i just want at least a 20 or 21 (i forgot what that is in the new scoring). but be honest should i push back or do you think i have time to grind it out for 3 weeks?

Gpa 3.8. Non science major. Aiming for tx schools. Do I have a good chance considering how late it is

CGPA 3.49
SGPA 3.43
BCP 3.26
