Should I retake the MCAT or DAT?

Answer a few questions about your score, your practice tests, and your timeline to see the signals for and against a retake, each with its reason.

The checklist weighs the gap to your target, whether your practice tests ran above your real score, how much time you have to change your preparation, and the AAMC's MCAT attempt limits. It is built on rules of thumb and does not predict a retake score.
