Here are three things to keep in mind By American Dental Association on Apr 18, 2017 08:00 am [http://www.asdablog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/DAT-Graphic_640x400.jpg]Originally developed in 1945, the Dental Admissions Test (DAT) was designed to measure general academic ability, comprehension of scientific information and perceptual ability of future dentists. Since then, hundreds of thousands of dentists have survived this test, and you will too! Here’s three things to keep in mind as you prepare: 1. Submit your application three months before your desired test date Decide when you want to sit for the DAT, and then apply for it 60-90 days prior. Please note that before you can apply to take the DAT or apply for admission to a dental school, you must obtain a DENTPIN®.
