QUESTION 12 OF 30

What was your DAT score prior to entering dental school? Were you happy with it?

Before dental school, you had to take and pass the Dental Admission Test. Because the test measures aptitude in biology, general chemistry, and organic chemistry, dental schools use it as a good measure for success in their program, and your interviewers for this residency simply want to hear your score and if you were happy with it.

"I scored 19 on my DAT, and I am happy with that score. I worked hard to prepare for the exam and was rewarded for my diligence."

Answer this straightforward question quickly and succinctly. Be open and honest about your score and talk about whether or not you were happy with the result. If possible, give a brief reason why you were or weren't happy with that score.
